Subscription - Your Support and Updates lifeline
Nearly 80% of SolidCAM customers renew their subscription each year to maximize their software investment and engineering productivity.
I love getting Service Packs from SolidCAM, I love the fact that they will tweak minor details, make slight improvements in the software, and can add an incremental capability or an incremental increase in ease of use. So just the fact that the company would output 4 Service Packs during the year, that you can download for free on subscription, they install very easily and very quickly and then nothing changes on the surface of the program but the usability gets better...
