Ordering Information

The Support & Maintenance Program is available for purchase in one-year, two-year, three-year, or five-year terms. The cost of the program depends on the value and quantity of Kepware software solutions purchased. For more information or to request a quote, please contact a Kepware representative or your local Kepware Partner.

Support Reinstatement Policy

When a support agreement or warranty has lapsed for a period of less than one year, Kepware requires a new Support & Maintenance Program purchase be backdated to the day following the end of the expired contract or warranty. In this instance, Kepware does not require any other relicensing or reinstatement fees.

When a support agreement or warranty has lapsed for a period of greater than one year, Kepware requires that the customer pay a Support Reinstatement Fee in order to make that software eligible for support. With this payment, support can then be ordered on a go-forward basis. For administrative ease, Kepware has combined the Support Reinstatement Fee with one year of support for a single orderable Product ID and price. Please contact a Kepware representative or your local Kepware Partner for more information or to request a quote.
