Three Common License Models
A monthly fee to use the software for a specific amount of time. Subscription pricing became popular with the advent of Software as a Service (SaaS).
Subscription
An upfront sum for the license to own the software and use it in perpetuity. This is the more traditional model and is most common with on-premise applications.Perpetual License
$ →∞
Licenses are usually free of charge, which reduces upfront costs. Implementation, integration and ongoing maintenance, however, can be major expenses.

Often Overlooked Costs
While this can be done in-house, most will want
to pay the vendor to transfer data.
Web-based training is often included, but
vendors will charge for in-person training. Training
This can be a major expense for on-premise
software buyers who need their own servers.Hardware & IT
Data migration
Maintenance and upgrades incur additional costs
and may be significant for open source buyers.Maintenance & Upgrades
