UWI.Com Revolutionizes Internet Forms Pricing with Innovative Licensing Model

Strategic Insights -

UWI.Com, the leading developer of Internet Forms software, has disrupted the market with a groundbreaking licensing model that accurately reflects the migration to Internet-based applications. The company's president and CEO, Eric Jordan, explained that traditional client/server pricing is "senseless" for Internet applications, where "number of users" is an irrelevant metric. Instead, UWI.Com offers a forms-based pricing model that allows organizations to match their investment to the number of forms they have in circulation, rather than the number of users.

Key Takeaways:

  • UWI.Com's innovative licensing model provides a more accurate pricing structure for Internet Forms, reflecting the unique needs of extranet applications.
  • The new pricing model is based on the number of InternetForms Designers and the number of form pages in use, with no "per user" fee or filler charges.
  • The Unlimited Users Plan is designed for organizations that post forms on their Internet sites, with pricing based on the number of InternetForms Designers and form pages in use.
  • The Unlimited Forms Plan is suited for organizations that need a large number of internal forms for a limited number of users, with pricing based on the number of InternetForms Designers and users.
  • The Forms and Users Plan combines the savings of both the Unlimited Users Plan and the Unlimited Forms Plan, pricing based on the number of InternetForms Designers, internal users, and externally used form pages.

Statistics:

  • Thousands of customers can access a single form on an organization's Web site without incurring additional charges.
  • The company's Internet Forms System helps businesses develop cost-effective, Internet-based business forms, saving time and money.
