Licensing
One payment. No renewal. No expiry.
Not everything should be a subscription. FreeHold sells a single Sensaro app outright — pay once, own that version, and it keeps working.
Subscription pricing makes sense when a product carries a genuine ongoing cost. Plenty of software charges monthly because the market allows it, not because anything actually recurs.
FreeHold is the alternative for people who would rather own a tool than rent it.
What buying outright means here
- One payment, no renewal date, no expiry.
- No licence server, so nothing breaks if we're not around.
- Your data is exportable, because a licence you own is worthless if the data isn't.
Common questions
What is a perpetual software licence?
You pay once for the right to use a version indefinitely, rather than paying on a schedule for continued access. The distinction that matters is whether the software keeps working when you stop paying — with a perpetual licence it does.
What happens if the company disappears?
That's the test a perpetual licence has to pass. There's no licence server to check in with, so the copy you have keeps running.
Do I get updates?
You own the version you bought. Some listings include updates within a major version, and it's stated on the listing.
