I am an EASE 4 user: Do I get an upgrade price for EASE 5?

Customers who already own a license of EASE 4 are entitled to start directly with the renewal fees for licensing EASE 5.

  • One-year license: Renewal Fee, 1 Year
  • Two-year license: Renewal Fee, 2 Years*

After the purchase, the existing EASE 4 license remains unchanged. Additionally a license for the new EASE 5 software is delivered.
This is not an upgrade within an existing software, but rather the purchase of a new software at a reduced price.

When I purchase EASE 4.4 now - will my investment be credited when I switch to EASE 5?

EASE 4.4 licenses purchased between October 04, 2022 and September 19, 2023 can be exchanged for an EASE 5 license with the same feature level* upon request. This exchange will be free of charge. You will receive an EASE 5 license with a time limit of 2 years.

This option is available until December 31, 2023.

With the availability of EASE 5 Second Edition since September 19, 2023, this exchange option is no longer offered. Nonetheless, your investment is honored as you may upgrade to EASE 5 at the reduced renewal pricing if you wish to switch to the new platform.

Which applications can be addressed with EASE 5?

EASE 5 is the tool of choice if you wish to model sound systems and room acoustics in 3D, possibly in just minutes or a few hours. Due to its intuitive user interface and fast workflows, it allows designing loudspeaker systems and investigating acoustical questions very efficiently. In this sense, EASE 5 provides a stable basis for many kinds of applications and projects. Please see the FAQ: In which cases do you recommend to still work with EASE 4 instead of EASE 5?
