VitalPBX Sonata Suite

The same goes for ScreenConnect self hosted. I purchased it for $600 (originally only 2 licenses) and maintenance renewals is 20% of that cost.

So all of that means that this is bullshit..

From what we can tell, you just rebuy it whenever you want more maintenance. There might be a discount, but assume not.

Now you are just whining. It's simple, you pay once and that gets you the software to use forever if you want, and one year of updates. Any normal person would assume that it only gives you what it says, nothing more. That you assume something it doesn't imply isn't anyone else's problem. You can complain that there isn't a discount that you want, but that's just complaining about a pricing structure. But you can't complain that it isn't super obvious and straightforward.
Perpetual license, one year of updates. Want to negotiate anything else, negotiate it.

No, I want them to post it. Don't mix me up with the other posters.
Just because I am taking issue with your current shiny thing you get defensive.

I'm with JB on this one. Assuming that 1 additional year of support costs the same as the original purchase, they could solve this whole bit by simply stating, yearly maintenance is the same cost.

Oh it would be nice to state that there is no pricing that isn't listed. But you have to admit, it's slightly odd as a thought process to have to state the lack of things that don't exist.

They reworded the store section of the website to simply state "Free Updates" for many of their things.
So @MontesVitalPBX, what does free mean in this context?
