SmarterTools have announced the release of their new upgrade protection program. This allows you to receive updates to your SmarterTools products for 12 months from the date of purchase.
This may look like a long boring post but it could mean some big savings
The upgrade protection will work as follows:
New Purchases
All new purchases of SmarterMail, SmarterTrack and SmarterStats will include 12 months worth of upgrade protection (a massive improvement over the previously included 45 days).
Existing Customers
Any customer who made a new purchase or upgrade on or after 26 June 2009 will automatically receive 12 months of upgrade protection from the date of purchase.
Any customer who made a purchase or upgrade prior to 26 June 2009 will be entitled to purchase upgrade protection at the promotional rate of 50%. You will also be able to upgrade any key you have (even a 1.x key) using this promotion to any version you want the latest version. This provides a good saving over the previous upgrade pricing. Plus ServerTastic gives you an extra 10% discount!
Important Points
These are the important points that ServerTastic wants to highlight as great money saving opportunities. The promotion allows you to not only purchase upgrade protection for your SmarterTools product and update to the latest version but you can also chose to increase your mailbox/site/agent limit as well - even move from Pro to Enterprise.
For example if you have a SmarterMail Pro 1.x 250 User. You can upgrade this to SmarterMail Ent 6.x 500 Mailbox for just $314.55 (see SmarterMail Upgrade Protection). This also applies to SmarterStats and SmarterTrack.
You can not upgrade your version limit (sites/mailboxes/agents) at the same time. If you wish to change your version limit we recommend purchasing upgrade protection first and then purchasing a version limit upgrade as this is the cheapest method.
This promotion will end on 24 September 2009. If you were to do this upgrade after this date the cost would be $534.74
Future upgrade protection renewals will work as follows. If you renew your upgrade protection while it is still valid the cost will be 40% of the full price for your version. If you allow your upgrade protection to expire then the re-activation cost will be 85% of the full price for your version.
To see the full upgrade protection pricing please visit the SmarterTools page on ServerTastic and click the relevant upgrade protection link.
So if you plan on upgrading any of your SmarterTools installations within the next 12 months we highly recommend taking advantage of this promotion
