confused about license - help?

[manarak]

Hello

I have bought 2 years ago a Plesk license.
Do I need to buy again to upgrade on Plesk 8.X ?

My second question is about the pricing.
What happened to the one-time fee?

I'd like to buy a license for 100 domains, but I don't want to pay monthly.
Where is the one time fee option?

These questions should really be addressed to Parallels' sales department.

But yes, a purchased license only allows you to upgrade for 1 year, after which you need to pay the SUS (Software Update Service) fee. If you don't pay it, you are not entitled to updates. I think there used to be a way to re-instate a lapsed SUS, which was still cheaper than a whole new licence, but I have no idea if you can still do that.

BUT,

Other than for Unlimited domains, it is no longer possible to purchase a new "owned" Plesk licence. You can only lease them. So unfortunately you can't purchase a new 100 domain licence, or a 30 domain, or a 300 domain. Only Unlimited.
