Why use KEPServerEX?

Advantages of KEPServerEX

Licensing and Support for KEPServerEX

Annual Rental - Subscription License

KEPServerEX can be rented as a service for at least one year.
The rental includes complete technical support and access to all updates that come out during the subscription period. Therefore, we recommend this method.
The initial price is 60 % less compared to a one-time software purchase.
You choose only the drivers or plug-ins you will use, so you don't pay for any features unnecessarily. You are free to purchase them anytime in the future.

One-time purchase - Perpetual License

Another option is to pay for the software once. This historically older licensing method requires a much larger initial investment.
If you want new updates and technical support, you won't avoid annual fees anyway because the price includes updates and support for the first year only.
Update & Support (Support Renewal) is recommended to be renewed periodically before expiration. Only with valid support can our technicians help you immediately in case of problems.

Update & Support

When purchasing KEPServerEX under the Perpetual License model, the Update & Support service is included in your license for the first year after purchase.

KEPServerEX | Update and support

Why choose the Annual Subscription License or extend Update & Support for multiple years?

By purchasing a multi-year license, you eliminate the need for annual renewals and ensure that you are not affected by yearly price increases.
