Inquired about this feature and was informed it was only available to Softplan plus subscribers!

I recently upgraded to version 2022. Paid the hefty upgrade cost etc. Was informed that I would have to pay the additional $55 per month for Softplan plus to be able to use it.

 

Anyone agree that this feature should be included in the upgrade price? Seems a bit unfair IMO. Thoughts?

 

Thanks

Couldn't you avoid the upgrade fee just by subscribing to Softplan plus?

Preferred to purchase the upgrade as opposed to Softplan Plus.

I have limited internet access/remote location, hence purchase instead of subscription.

 

Thanks

So you would rarely use it anyway then right? I view this as simply levels of ownership: you have softplan lite (is that still a thing?), Interiors, remodel, full softplan and then softplan +. We all made our choices based on our own situations but to expect everything when 'everything' isn't a part of what you purchased well, I guess I just look at it differently. That's all.

Not necessarily. I would use it as a feature that I can offer my clients for presentation and or sales purposes! As a past Softplan user I am suggesting the feature as part of the upgrade price. The current upgrade pricing for existing users in not cheap! ( I paid $1600.00 to upgrade from 2012 to 2022)!  Yes the $55 per month subscription price is appropriate for most users but not everyone! I would not consider wanting this feature as "everything". It would be a nice incentive for past users that continue to use the product. Levels of ownership should be for new user purchases not existing!


Thanks
