Sincpac C3D Pricing
The Sincpac C3D has grown now to include a huge array of tools. In fact, it
now includes so many features that we've been receiving lots of requests to
provide subsets of the tools. Well, now the tools are split into three different
modules, and you may purchase any one or all of the modules. So if you only
want a particular feature, you no longer need to purchase the entire Sincpac C3D!

See the Product Matrix for details
on the features included in each version.
- Power Module:
Dynamic Links and the
Dynamic Reporting and Analysis commands
- Points Module: Commands for working
with Cogo Points and Point Groups
- Drafting Module: All other tools in
the Sincpac C3D
As an added bonus, the Points and Drafting modules will also update
Dynamic Links. This means that Dynamic Links will still update in response
to changes to the drawing, even on computers that do not have the Power
module. Dynamic Links cannot be created without the Power module,
but once the links are created, they will update automatically as long as any one
of the three Sincpac C3D modules are activate. In addition, all three modules
include the Inverse commands (PTINV,
PTANG, and
PTARC), the BuildSelectionSet command, the Logging functionality, and some of the automatic features (twist MTEXT, MLEADER, and Dimension
entities to match the current DView TWist; change General Note and General Line/Curve object layers when current layer changes).

C3D Upgrade Policy
With the new licensing system, your license will activate all updates released for
one year from your purchase date. At the end of one year, the version you
have installed at that time will continue to work indefinitely. However, you
will not be able to install and use updates released after your license expires,
unless you purchase an upgrade for your software.
The price for an upgrade is based on how long it has been since your previous purchase:
|
Years since Purchase (or previous upgrade)
|
Discount from Full Retail
|
|
1
|
80%
|
|
2
|
60%
|
|
More than 2
|
50%
|
With this pricing scheme, you would receive an 80% discount from the full purchase
price if you upgrade each year. For example, if we assume that prices in general
do not change and the full price for a single license remains at $350, then upgrading
your license next year would cost $70. Should you skip a year, upgrading would
then cost $140. No matter how much longer you wait, however, as a previous
customer, you will always be able to renew your license for an additional year for
no more than 50% of the purchase price of a new license. These prices are
an example only, based on the current prices. And while the base price of the product
is subject to change, the 80%-50% upgrade policy will remain in effect.
Note that there is no deadline for purchasing an upgrade; however, purchasing an
upgrade does not reset your Anniversary Date. In other words, say
you purchase a license to the Sincpac C3D on August 1, 2009. August 1 is now
your "Anniversary Date". Your key will activate all upgrades released
for a period of one year, until August 1, 2010. In order to use any updates
released after August 1, 2010, you would need to purchase an upgrade. However,
you do not need to purchase that upgrade before August 1 - you can wait. The
latest version released before August 1, 2010 will continue to work; you just will
not be able to use any newer versions until you purchase an upgrade. Let's
say you wait until April of 2011 to purchase the upgrade. Since it has been
less than one year since your subscription expired, you will receive this upgrade
for 80% off the full price. However, the new key will only work until your
Anniversary Date, on August 1, 2011. This does not apply if you wait longer
than 2 years, and pay 50% to renew your license. If you pay 50% to renew your
license, this will also reset your Anniversary Date, and you will have a full year
from that date before you need to purchase another renewal.
The net goal of this policy is to encourage our customers to upgrade on an annual
basis, but not force an upgrade at an inconvenient time. Essentially, it is
much like Autodesk's subscription policy, except we allow our customers to drop
their "subscription" at any time, and get back "up to date"
at any time without an additional penalty.
And if you wish, we can automatically bill you annually before your Anniversary
Date arrives, so you will always be able to download the latest upgrades without
interruption. Simply contact us to setup the auto-bill option.
NOTE: All pricing shown hereon is in US Dollars. Please adjust accordingly for
any conversion rates for your locale.
