Several people asked whether or not this license is any good after one year but there were no answers. Is this a perpetual license? Larry

The license includes support and updates for one year. After that you must buy maintenance. That said, the software doesn't stop working on the workstation on which it's installed. If after some year or two after that if you try to remove it and reinstall it on another workstation, you will have to buy an upgrade. Please check with AutoDesk for details.

When you buy the retail box, it includes 1-yr license. Thats 1-yr for each computer that you install it onto. Instead of paying the renewal fee, it would likely be cheaper to buy it again next year when new rebates come out (they almost always come out) which make it free after-rebate (like it is now).

Absolutely not! And it's a subscription not a license. You can use the device to your leisure after the subscription has expired. You just won't be able to update the vehicle softwares until you renew the subscription. You are paying for the unit which comes with a 1 year free subscription to vehicle software updates from Autoboss via their software update client. When you get the unit you can use it without registering it until you are ready to update it. However, you MUST register the device with Autoboss first before you can start to update the device. Your subscription starts when you register the device online, after which, you have one year of free updates from Autoboss. Hope this answered your question.

I can't put my hands on my package for this but I researched this question about a year or so ago and my recollection is that you can actually run it legally on a small peer-to-peer network of 3 users. I have used this program for 25 years--including on networks. It is rock solid for what it is. Unfortunately for small time guys like me I think their successor is trying to take it to a higher level to compete with CRM systems which I'm sure it can do. However, they are pricing guys like me out of the market. The bad news is there probably won't be any support for this version going forward. The good news is you probably won't need it. I also wouldn't expect the folks who've sold out to come after you for license infractions but you never know.

They have a web-site that actually works. Or it did when I contacted them. You might have an invalid license number, the website should provide you with another license number. Hopefully this will work for you, it happened to me and this was the solution.

Yes. The reg codes will work across versions now. You can get a one year if you like but they also have multi year available at a better price (per year) then you don't have to worry about it as often.

It's good for quite awhile. I bought mine November 2013 and the use by date is November 2014.

You have to be careful about trusting everything advertised or shown on Amazon. My user manual also says one year so I think that is what you have to go by. Call customer service for the manufacturer if you want -- their number and website are in the Amazon listing.

Although I kept it after first usage, I doubt it can work as new after a year. If you use it often then keep it.

What I want to know is, after reading these reviews both good and bad, I am wavering about whether I should keep my Striiv. How is the company going to support me if and when the devices freezes, stops working altogether etc. I am a citizen on a fixed income and really bought this device at great sacrifice to myself. I would appreciate an answer ASAp

Yes to activating in USA and updatable for the license period of one or two years depending on your version. Not sure if the code is good in Columbia but I suspect it's a global license and can be activated anywhere

I trust it is lifetime. You get three license numbers to use as you please. Of course, in time, this version of Acronis may not work with whatever new versions of Windows that will come out. However this version is good with Windows 8, and Windows 8 should be in use for a few years. The version is also backwards compatible with version 7.

My understanding is that it's one year, but frankly, it's not important to me. ghd is a great quality, and I'd still be using my old one, which I had many years, but was recently friend in Europe. I registered this one with ghd and it's the "classic" version, not the "professional" version. Does this help?
