Licensing

It’s your choice.  You can license BGI’s applications on a one-time, fixed fee basis, or you can pay a lower annual license fee every year that you use our software.  If you elect the latter, you can switch to the one-time license at a later date.

Source Code

It’s your choice.  You can license BGI’s applications with or without the source code.

As none of our key competitors include source code, we feel that our approach offers you a new alternative.  Previously you could either build your application in-house or depend on one of BGI's competitors for all of your software and enhancement needs.  With BGI's products, however, you now have a third choice:  you can license BGI's feature-rich software, receive support and upgrades from BGI, and yet still have the ability to make enhancements in-house as needed.

Upgrades

It’s your choice.  You can pay an annual maintenance fee and receive upgrades under the terms of that agreement, or you can request upgrades as you wish and just pay BGI for the time needed to prepare your upgrade.

Support

It’s your choice.  You can pay BGI for all support on an hourly basis, or you can purchase blocks of support at the start of each year and then use those hours throughout the year.

Extended Warranty

It’s your choice.  You can pay an annual maintenance fee and extend the warranty on your BGI application indefinitely or you can just pay BGI by the hour if you encounter an issue after the initial warranty expires.

It’s your choice.

 * Although our current policies have been in place since we began, please note that we reserve the right to change our licensing and support policies in the future.
