Support Plans clarification

Post by MikeBwca »

Blue Iris Extended Support and Maintenance 1 year electronic 34.95 USD
Extended yearly access to email support, software updates and version upgrades

Blue Iris Extended Support and Maintenance electronic 29.95 USD
Extended yearly access to email support, software updates and version upgrades

Can someone explain the difference. Both are for 1 year? Why the $5 extra for the one that says '1 year'

It's $1 per character and there are 5 characters in the phrase "1 year", so I think that's why it's more.

(note: not an official support response)

They are both 1 year extended support and maintenance plans with the only difference is that the $34.95 plan does not auto-renew after 1 year.

Yup, I agree with Reddawg, as seen at https://blueirissoftware.com/

Extend support & maintenance ($29.95 /yr)
Priority & maintenance ($59.95 /yr)
1 yr. extension of support & maintenance ($34.95 one time)

Badly worded, and as clear as mud that one. I can feel a support email coming up :idea:
