This is a great opportunity to either acquire a new licence, or to upgrade to a higher version.

No Workgroup offer visible? Apr 23, 2007

Hi Olaf,

I just checked the group buy page and don't see any price for the Workgroup version. ???

PS - these prices look a lot more like what I paid for mine! But worth every penny. I was lucky, of course: I started off with one big, initial job, so I not only made back the price, plus a tidy sum for myself, but I also got a good start on term and memory databases that have been making my life easier and my work more accurate ever since.

Workgroup version + dollar prices Apr 23, 2007

Hi Yolanda,

As far as I understand, there will be the same 20% discount for the Workgroup version as for Standard and Professional. Atril's official price of the Workgroup is 2250 EUR, so I suppose the discount rate would be around 1800 EUR (which corresponds to 2450 USD at the current exchange rate). I think the ProZ people wanted to keep it simple, that's why they didn't specify a price for the Workgroup yet.

When did you buy your licence? If you bought it 4-5 years

When did you buy your licence? If you bought it 4-5 years ago, you probably paid much less because at that time the dollar was much stronger than now. Lucky you!

Best,

Olaf

DV price in dollars was, indeed, lower Apr 23, 2007

But I bought DV3, back when it was in version 20-something, so the dollar was definitely stronger at the time. But I still paid a pretty penny.

Also, I got to do that whole first job using the free, 30-day full-function demo version. I wonder how/whether that offer to try the software for free for 30 days would work with this group buy.

30 days demo Apr 23, 2007

The 30-days demo (full Version) is an option that is always offered.
This is independent of any special arrangements.

Kind regards
Judy Ann
