Understanding the NEW Backdating Subscription Policy

Hello there...

I recently heard about the NEW Subscription Backdating Policy applicable from 1/1/16.

Personally I did not like this new policy. I feel that Solidworks is charging too much money for their subscriptions

It takes all juice from the small companies indeed.

We purchased a standalone Solidworks Professional license a year ago and my current subscription will expire on 30th October, 2015.

I am still unclear regarding this policy. I couldn't understand it fully. I have a few questions. Any comments on this will be very helpful to make decisions.

How much will it cost if I -

1) Buy subscription (Professional) before 30th October,2015(before my current subscription expires)?

2) Buy subscription in mid of December

3) Buy subscription after 1st January,2016

4) Buy subscription in June 2016

I would request to provide help on these topics with its calculation.

Thanks in advance for support.

Regards,

Bhavarth
