Software Planner is an integral part of our software development and the client has adopted it. Using this software has allowed me to not only manage the software development, but also disputes regarding change requests. Software Planner has allowed us to plan time lines for deliverables, track hours, manage change requests/defects and quality assurance. The reporting facility allows me to convey the status of the project to management.

discounting policies:

Concurrent User License
Our license is based on concurrent (floating) user licenses. This means that you can set up an unlimited number of named users to use the software.
For example, if you purchase a 20 concurrent license, 20 people can be logged in at the same time, but you can have as many named users setup to use the software as you desire. This licensing structure requires substantially less licenses as compared to a traditional named user license structure.

Why Choose Software Planner as My ALM Tool?
- Single tool - Software Planner provides features for managing all phases of the software
development lifecycle within a single integrated tool. Most ALM vendors require you to
purchase separate products (or suites) that require separate licensing, which can be very costly.
- Project Methodology Independent - Software Planner works well with any project
methodology including Agile, Waterfall, Iterative, and Spiral. It does not force you into a specific
methodology; it embraces your chosen methodology.
- Feature Based Pricing - Some teams need to manage all phases of the lifecycle, while others
just need to manage specific areas (like defects, test cases, customer specifications, etc).
Software Planner allows you to purchase its features ala cart so that you pay for only the
features you need.
- Concurrent Licenses - Most ALM vendors offer only NAMED user licenses, requiring you to
purchase a license for every person that uses the software. Software Planner provides
concurrent licenses; you purchase only the number of users you wish to simultaneously connect
to the software. Concurrent user licenses allow you to setup an unlimited number of users and
normally require about 1/3 the licenses as the traditional named user license.
- No Hassle Pricing - Software Planner's competitive pricing is published on our website and does
not change from one client to another. We offer consistent discounts based on long term
commitments and volume purchases. For Enterprise clients, we offer up to 2 year financing to
allow you to spread the cost of the product over multiple fiscal years.
- Future Product Versions at no Cost - Our Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) clients receive future
products at no additional cost. Our Enterprise clients in good standing (paid annual support) also
provide major and minor versions at no additional cost.
- Backed by Outstanding Support - Pragmatic Software's support enjoys a 92% customer
satisfaction rating. Our core competencies are built around providing excellent support. By
providing searchable knowledge bases and an easy-to-use support ticket system, you can expect
to receive a support follow-up with 1 to 2 hours during business hours. Our support engineers
are polite, professional, and quick to react to any questions or issues you raise.
