How to Purchase Maintenance and Plan Renewals:
Maintenance Plans can be purchased at time of product sale or within 30 days of the purchase. The Maintenance Plan is an annual, renewable plan and an invoice will be sent to you 60 days prior to the end of the current plan.

Term of Plans:
Plans are based on a calendar year from January 1st to December 31st. Plan dates are flexible and can be tailored to meet your business calendar year schedule.

Standard Maintenance Offering:
This plan includes the items mentioned in the above table and the price is based on 15% of the current list price. Upgrades are not covered, but are available for purchase at a minimum 25% of the current list price.

Maintenance Plus Offering:
This plan includes the items mentioned in the above table and all upgrades, including major releases, such as from 1.0 to 2.0. Whenever there is a new version, the price for an existing maintenance plan is adjusted to reflect the new list price, if changed, for the remaining maintenance period (from the date that the customer is sent a requested license key). The price for this plan is 25% of the software’s current list price. This upgrade protection means that you will never need to purchase a version upgrade. SecurSearch typically has a version upgrade every 10 to 18 months.

Switching Plans:
Customers may move from Standard Maintenance to Maintenance Plus at anytime. Keep in mind that if you move to a higher plan, you must first purchase the current upgrade if you have not already done so. Customers may only move from Maintenance Plus down to Maintenance at the end of their current annual term.

Disclaimer: The descriptions in this document do not provide a basis for any remediation of software issues by Extracomm Inc. The precise details of the maintenance plans are listed in the Maintenance Contract Agreement. Prior to purchase you will receive a maintenance agreement for your authorization.
