Personally i would be willing to pay 100 dollars a year for support... Thats the method jomsocial and ijoomla do it -
Option 1 - One month non re-occurring
Give a smaller version with out everything included.
29.95 - For a lite version. Does the basics..
1 Domain
Option 2 - 6 month - 1 time fee 100 Bucks
Full version
2 Domain
--- 1 live
----1 dev
Option 3 - 12 month - 1 time fee 179 bucks
Full Version
up to 3 domains
---2 live
---- 1 dev
Additional domains -25 bucks per -
This just seems a little high for my blood..
Option 1 non re-occurring - 59.95 --- this i could see maybe - just for a 1 time purchase.
Option 2 re-occurring - 39.95 for six months = 239.70 dollars
Option 3 re-occurring - 29.95 for 12 months = 359.40 dollars.
This isn't high at all. Go price RedShop, Tienda or any of the other commercial competitive products.
Secondly, this is a GPL'd product so, locking it into domains isn't a viable option hence, the paid support. The forms are a great place for user-to-user support but, since this product falls along the same lines of Virtuemart, paid support is the only real viable financial model for these guys. Yes, $360 annually may seem steep but, what if you have it installed on 100 sites, 1000 sites?
For people with only one or two sites, pay the $59 one month subscription. You should find any bugs within that timeframe to need paid support for.
Paid support has it advantages like early access to development, other addons coming down the pipe, etc. if they choose to head down that path. |
