Will Subscription Software Take Over? | |
|
||
| Time: 10:28 EST/15:28 GMT | News Source: E-Commerce Times | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
|
Microsoft's (Nasdaq: MSFT) move to Licensing 6 and Sun's planned quarterly release cycle for Project Orion have some in the IT industry wondering if subscription-based software is becoming the norm. And if it is, is this a good or bad thing for the industry? Subscription-based pricing is definitely attractive to vendors that desire predictable revenue streams. It may even be appealing to some customers that like to budget software purchases well in advance. In fact, if implemented well, subscriptions can be a plus for customers. It is only when done poorly that they look like a money grab and invite bad publicity. | ||
