Kipware LITE - subscription model for Kipware CNC / Machine Shop software.

Introducing Kipware® LITE Versions

LITE versions are subscription versions of specific Kipware® titles that go beyond the normal “trial version”. LITE versions allow users to experience the full features of the Kipware® title … with no restrictions other than a time limit. Generate G code … create cycletime estimates … create cost estimates and quotations … anything you can do in the full version you can do with the LITE version. At the end of the period … users can purchase a FULL version with all LITE version costs credited toward that purchase … or renew for another period.

Some users choose to use the LITE version to split up the cost of the full version. Purchase a LITE version now … UPGRADE to a FULL version when financially more able.
