Esko has released Suite 14.1 with ‘Software as a Service’ (SaaS) and subscription options so packaging professionals can pick the parts they need.
The company claims this provides “greater flexibility, scalability, and a lower total cost of ownership”.
“SaaS and subscription models for software are becoming the de facto standard in the software industry,” said Bernard Zwaenepoel, Esko’s senior vice-president for software business.
“Esko has worked hard to keep pace with customer needs and industry trends, and to bring more value to customers with our Suite 14.1 release. While we have been offering a subscription model for some time for certain software modules, this release broadens the scope of that effort across more Suite 14.1 modules and responds to customer requests for increased cloud-based delivery of Esko software solutions.
“While perpetual software licences will continue to be offered, customers now have the option of choosing a SaaS or software subscription model if it better fits their operational needs.”
