I just looked it up. Your prices are still accurate but there is a $1,300 per year maintenance and support fee also. So you pay $4k or $8K up front one-time. Then maintenance and support for as long as you continue to use the software.
For the intended user base this reasonable. It adds less then 1% cost and improves productivity by far more then 1% Or compare the cost of Solidworks to the cost of a full size CNC machine. The $8K cost is "in the noise". On Thu, Sep 17, 2020 at 10:18 AM Eric Keller <keller...@gmail.com> wrote: > Last time I checked, many years ago now, solidworks without simulations was > $4k.
