Changing to Sibelius Ultimate
Posted by Keith John Hutchison - Ceiteach Seán Mac Úistin - 20 Oct 03:36AM (edited 20 Oct 03:37AM)
G'day

What is the charge for changing a Sibelius 2018 perpetual license to a Sibelius Ultimate 2020 perpetual license?

Cheers and thanks!

If you can find a reseller who is still supplying upgrades you might be able to get it cheaper, but AFAIK, the only way to go from 2018 to 2020 is to purchase the whole program from scratch - see image.

Be careful, they're trying to get us all onto a subscription. Avoid it!

Thanks Mike - I'm not interested in subscriptions as I run my own show and cash flow is / or was unpredictable!

We sell software ourselves so I understand. We push the subscription model ourselves - it's great for cashflow! - but we still give the tenant the option to buy a perpetual license if they wish as long as they organise their own hardware and IT support.

Yeah, but this is Avid's version - half the time the bloody subscription engine doesn't work and loads of people are left without working software every month!
