Two Common License Models

A monthly fee to use the software for a specific amount of time. Subscription pricing became popular with the advent of Software as a Service (SaaS).

Subscription

An upfront sum for the license to own the software and use it in perpetuity. This is the more traditional model and is most common with on-premise applications.Perpetual License

Perpetual License Costs

• Perpetual license fee

• Customizations

• Installation/setup

• Integration with existing systems

• Maintenance (updates, patches & upgrades)

• Premium support services

! Customization and integration costs can be significant—often as much or more than the software—if you choose to change the software substantially.

Upfront costs

Recurring costs

Subscription Costs

Customization and integration costs are often less costly simply because SaaS systems have not provided as much flexibility in this area. Although that is changing as SaaS systems evolve.!

Total Cost of Ownership

While a perpetual license may cost more up front, the total cost of ownership typically converges with subscription packages in seven to 10 years.

Often Overlooked Costs

While this can be done in-house, most will want

to pay the vendor to transfer data.

Web-based training is often included, but

vendors will charge for in-person training. Training

This can be a major expense for on-premise

software buyers who need their own servers.
