[Vtigercrm-developers] New vtiger new income

[Stefan Warnat]

Hy,

That I don't earn money from upgrading is not really true, but I earn money
on other paths. But you are true, that I'm not fully depend on the income
from my modules.
I use the module within our own implementations for clients and save a huge
amount of time, because I could "use" a default employee, without
development skills and he could build most individual crm systems and most
complex processes.
So the module is working and required in any way.
And: My other modules, different then Workflow Designer don't get lifetime
updates anymore, because it is like Simone wrote. Some modules, which work
in frontend for enduser, must adjusted to a new "User experience".

But: Regardless if the update is free for lifetime, my clients don't get
lifetime support for my modules. Only lifetime updates.
If they crash the crm with the update, they will get support only on a very
low level.

I think 400€ is a good price for upgrading everything, excerpt prices of
module. But this heavily depend on modifications the client had. (And if
the client could remember at first, how past work is calculated)

Regards,
Stefan
