Pricing and Cost Advice | ||
Information Not Available | There are no extra costs. It's about $8,000 a year. The bang for the buck (cost) is definitely a plus. We have increased the license over time. We have added more licenses as the network has grown. There is a recurring maintenance fee after the initial purchase or if we want the license upgrade. The license is per device. We have 50 devices. We just renewed. The pricing is 5,000 euro per year. This is the final price. All tax (20 percent) is included. We recently bought a license upgrade, so we will integrate more exporters. We upgraded from a 25 exporter license to a 50 exporter license. Therefore, there will be more flows, and this will be an extension. I don't know when we will purchase a faster server, because the server that we have is quite new. It's about €10,000 a year for initial license and yearly maintenance costs. In addition, the hardware costs are about €10,000 once every five years. We pay our one-off cost for the licenses, per device, in blocks of 50. And then we pay an annual maintenance fee of about $15,000 Australian, which is, at this point in time, about $9,000 US, for those 250 devices. The upfront costs for the 250-license use, were about $50,000 Australian, which is about $32,000 US. | Information Not Available |
