@Boldline , interesting to hear
-
@vectoradmin,
I think you are probably right, that is my guess as well.
-
@Ingolf So basically all the new 2022 features are available for subscription only, and the 2021 would be the last version with regular license?
-
I wonder if those updates get added to the standalone purchase next year and subscription users get it instantly. that would make the most sense.
Corel is in a tough spot because most of their updates are not exciting enough to tempt someone to switch to subscription. I can see a model with the main core program being a paid update annually for improvements and then offering access to bonus materials for a small subscription - brushes, guides, templates, dynamic (as in always available and updated) assets
-
That is exactly my thought.
In my eyes, it's pure greed that's driving Corel to this step.
They were already constantly bugging me already with promotional
messages with the 2020 version.I wonder how long Corel will get away with it.
Because I can't imagine what improvements they will have to offer
in the long run. To keep the users happy.

I am not sure. Maybe. Interesting where it goes.

Being available with a traditional license model is a major selling point, so I doubt Corel will shoot themselves in the foot by going subscription-only.

Are you meaning Corel will shoot themselves in the foot by potentially going subscription only because there is a great value in being non-subscription?
-
@Boldline Yes. If I’m not mistaken, a major part of CDR’s market is the developing countries where even paying ~500€ for a perpetual license every three years is difficult for some. If they would go subscription-only it would be regarded as a money-grabbing move by the accountants.

read a while ago that in India / Asia is a big corel user base.
if you search for Corel Tutorials on Youtube you will note that.
