Access to PLANTA Knowledge Base

PLANTA’s customer forum provides an extensive database of information via the Internet, so that it is often possible for users themselves to solve any problems which arise. Customers have round-the-clock access to a knowledge base of industry-specific and technical information, together with manuals.

 

Price savings when purchasing scaled tasks in the case of changes to the license model.

Active software maintenance entitles customers to purchase new price scales as the monetary difference between the previous and new price scale. In the event of no maintenance, the new scale is to be purchased at the normal price.
