Subscription Licensing – Turning the Latest Trend into a Solid Future
The move by software vendors away from the traditional permanent license to a low yearly
subscription fee that includes all licensing, upgrades, maintenance and technical support
has the potential to reduce software costs greatly. The terminal emulator vendors have not
yet adopted this model, though communications protocols and security requirements have
become standardized.
Reducing costs for IBM 3270 Access
Century Software has provided the highest quality terminal emulators for over 25 years,
and is now providing an opportunity for organizations to save 30%-80% of their ongoing
costs yearly, while retaining all required functionality and support. This is made
possible by replacing and consolidating corporate terminal emulation, and using the
latest trend in software pricing: yearly subscription licensing that includes everything.
Replacing Without Repurchasing
Century has created a new, lower cost way of providing IBM host access solutions, the
Annual Subscription License. Using a low yearly fee, the subscription includes licenses
for replacement and consolidation of all a company’s terminal emulators, regardless of
origin and capital spent, along with upgrades, maintenance, technical support, and feature
enhancements – available now with TinyTERM Subscription Host Access.
Replace Attachmate Extra! for $30/year per User
TinyTERM Subscription Host Access easily replaces products such as Attachmate
Extra!
®, Micro Focus Rumba
®, and IBM Personal
Communications
®. Companies replacing and consolidating all their current
emulators using the Annual Subscription License can expect savings of at least 30%-80%
each year on recurring expense from what is currently being paid. Prices for complete
terminal emulation product, maintenance and support are a maximum of $30/year per user,
with lower prices on larger volumes.
IBM 3270 and 5250 Access
TinyTERM Subscription Host Access provides IBM mainframe connectivity with precise
TN3270E emulation, including secure host access utilizing strong SSL/TLS encryption.
IBM AS/400 hosts are supported, with exact TN5250E emulation, LPD printer support, and
SSL/TLS. Organizations using UNIX and Linux servers can rely on legacy terminal emulations
including DEC VT420, VT100, AT386, and Wyse 60. Advanced SSH encryption is used to secure all
host communications.
Enterprise Deployment
Advanced deployment capabilities provide flexibility to control and manage the enterprise
rollout process. Customized host access configurations can be easily and automatically
pushed from corporate file servers to multiple desktops, and are compatible with Microsoft
MSI and SMS installation mechanisms. TinyTERM Subscription Host Access can be
installed directly on Citrix and Microsoft thin client terminal servers for deployment
without any desktop installation.
Trouble-Free Transition and Migration
Migrating from your existing emulator to TinyTERM Subscription Host Access is greatly
simplified with built-in keyboard and code page mappings compatible with Attachmate, Micro
Focus and IBM products. Changes in day-to-day business methods are minimized by allowing
TinyTERM to run side-by-side with the current terminal emulator, allowing a smooth
transition. Using pre-built configuration settings is easy using the File Import menu,
which converts other vendor’s configuration files. TinyTERM can be configured with
identical display colors, keyboard mappings and a customizable user interface that
initially matches Attachmate Extra!.
Pricing
With Annual Subscription Licensing, the maximum cost for TinyTERM Subscription Host
Access is USD $30 per user per year, or just $2.50 per user per month with a 100-user
minimum. Pricing is volume-based, so for larger quantities the cost can be much lower.
Century Software has created the annual licensing option to help organizations
control and reduce their terminal emulation costs. The subscription license includes
product use licenses, version upgrades, technical support, and feature enhancements.
It is ideal for organizations requiring a fully supported terminal emulation product,
with full coverage for operating system and security requirement upgrades.
If your organization uses Attachmate Extra!, Micro Focus Rumba, IBM Personal
Communications or other terminal emulation products in any combination, now is the
time to consolidate and standardize on a single, lower-cost solution: TinyTERM
Subscription Host Access.
Benefits of Subscription Licensing
Century’s discounted Subscription License pricing allows a company to obtain replacement
product use licenses and maintenance coverage at a much lower cost, with a subscription
license fee paid annually. Subscription licensing is renewed yearly at the same cost, and
also allows adding or subtracting users as well as receiving new versions and upgrades
without incurring capital expense or negotiating any contract. It offers the flexibility
to meet organizations needs for ever-changing environments easily.
Organizations can save 30%-80% each year on ongoing maintenance expenses, with the
flexibility to increase or decrease user counts at any time. Replacement of an existing
terminal emulator with new product usage licenses is completely covered, as is all
support, version upgrades and feature enhancements. Capital expenditures are eliminated
and replaced with a deductible low-cost subscription expense.
Subscription licensing is ideal for companies currently paying ongoing maintenance or
those requiring a fully-supported IBM terminal emulation solution, future-proofed
against Windows and security upgrades. As government and corporate security standards
continue to strengthen, and operating systems continue to upgrade, the need for ongoing
maintenance is ever-present.
