What is the difference between minor updates and major upgrades?

The minor updates refer to the small updates within one version, like an update from version 7.1.X to version 7.3.X.  

The major upgrades refer to the big upgrade of the software, normally the first number of the version number will change, like from version 7.1.X to version 8.1.X. 

Note:

  • Normally, our software perpetual license will enable you to have free minor updates within the version you purchased, but you might need to pay for major upgrades. Or you can still use the version you purchased forever without paying any extra fee if you do not want to pay for a major upgrade.
  • All types of subscription terms normally are specified on the price/payment page. Please make sure you check the price plan details carefully.
