Datex provides two types of licensing models, perpetual and subscription. Purchasing perpetual licenses enables the use of the licensed software indefinitely. Subscription licenses provide access to the WMS software product, features and functions. The monthly subscription fee includes access to the core product, elected optional modules and user access based on the number of named users. The monthly subscription fee includes access to technical support and includes additional features such as server maintenance, backup, disaster recovery and technical support.
Datex can also provide you with a hybrid solution. Many Datex clients purchase perpetual software licenses and use Datex hosting services in order to reduce the need for onsite IT resources. These licenses are then made available via a Cloud delivery model.
