MBAM Consumer Subscription License Question

[RandyC]

I am a reseller of MBAM. I received your reminder that 24 March, 2014 will be the end of the lifetime subscription offering.

 

My question is this: When V2.0 comes out and new licenses become subscription-based, when will the license "begin to expire?" I usually buy licenses in bulk, 10 at a time, if they begin to expire as soon as I purchase them, then someone may be buying a 9 month long subscription, if I've held the license for 3 months, for example.

 

AVG allows the purchase of "sales numbers," which are like licenses but don't begin their life until converted to licenses.

Misunderstood question - sorry.  I think it is on activation - not on purchase.

Hi RandyC,

We are following a similar model to AVG. When you sell a Subscription License to a user, the 1-year subscription term does not start until the user enters the Subscription License into MBAM 2.0 to activate Premium features. The user has a right to enter the Subscription License on THREE (3) PCs.  But, the 1-year subscription term begins when the user enters the Subscription License on the FIRST PC.

 

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

 

Thanks.

Thank you, Celee, that's good information.
