Today we are announcing several price changes including volume pricing, renewal term changes, and a renewal price reduction.
Renewal Term Changes
As all of our clients know, our IP.Board licenses renew every 6 months to continue support, upgrades, and services for the licenses. However, our applications (IP.Blog, IP.Gallery, IP.Downloads, and IP.Content) all renew just once a year. This yearly renewal is a leftover policy from previous license setups that were just yearly renewals.
To make everything match, we are changing all application renewal terms to match the 6 month term for IP.Board licenses. It is important to note that we are not raising the actual prices but the frequency of the renewal period so everything is the same. This change will make managing your licenses with IPS much easier for both you and our staff. Example: IP.Blog renewal is currently $20 per year whereas it will now be $10 every 6 months.
IP.Gallery Renewal Reduction
Currently IP.Gallery is $30 per year for the renewal fees. We are now lowering this to $10 every 6 months to match IP.Blog and IP.Downloads. As this is a price reduction we have credited all customers with currently active IP.Gallery licenses with a 3 month extension to their term. Note that this does not apply to Community Suite licenses as those licenses have free renewals for IP.Gallery already included.
Volume Pricing
It has been requested and we are now happy to announce volume pricing for customers wishing to purchase multiple IP.Board licenses. If you have at least two full-price, active licenses for IP.Board then you will now be able to purchase discounted Standard licenses for just $99.00. Renewal fees will remain the normal price. For customers who purchase more than 25 licenses, their price drops to $49.00.
As with any great deal there are terms and conditions. To qualify for purchasing additional licenses at a discounted price: you must have two full-price licenses (Standard, Business, or Community Suite licenses qualify) with their support and service renewal ($25/6 month) paid plus any existing discounted licenses must also have their support and service renewal paid as well. Applications will also be offered at discounted prices if they are associated with a discounted IP.Board license. Discount pricing for applications will be available in the client area and will range from $30 - $50 depending on the application.
We hope you enjoy the new flexibility of 6 month renewals, the less expensive IP.Gallery renewals, and the options for volume pricing!

The special offer referenced below has expired.
Reposting from previous announcement as a reminder to all current and prospective customers...
Community Suite Promotion
The current Community Suite package offered for sale on our web site has been available for quite some time and features a bundled deal to purchase IP.Board, IP.Gallery, and IP.Blog all at once. It has been a great way for customers to purchase those products at once for a discount. However, the package was introduced before we had other products like IP.Downloads, IP.Content, and more.
The downside is that some clients want to mix-and-match from our various product line yet the Community Suite is the three products listed with no other options. It also becomes difficult as IPS adds more to our product line.
Therefore, starting November 2, 2009, we will be discontinuing the Community Suite purchase option. On that date it will be replaced with a discount option based on the simple premise of the more products you purchase at once then the greater your package discount grows. It's only fair to offer a greater discount based on your purchase volume while still offering you flexibility to choose which products you want. We will have information about this on our web site when available in November.
Last Chance to Purchase Community Suite
If you are interested in our Community Suite be sure to order before November 2 to lock in the price and the renewal offers.
Pricing Benefits
Ordering products (Board/Blog/Gallery) separately: $264.97 up front plus $100 per year for support/services/upgrades

Special IPS Product Line Offer
Until November 2, we are also offering a special for those wishing to purchase the entire IPS product line. If you are interested in all that's offered under the Community Suite (Board/Blog/Gallery) plus IP.Downloads and IP.Content you can purchase all of these products for just an additional $50 (total of $299.99 for all) on top of the Community Suite price. That's a savings of $50 compared to buying separately. Standard renewal terms apply. Purchase special offer... it is only available by reading this announcement - not mentioned anywhere on our web site!
