IAR Systems introduces global volume license program (VLP)
IAR Systems today announced a global volume license program. With its support for more than 20 different 8-, 16-, and 32-bit MCU architectures, IAR Systems is the world's leading provider of software tools for embedded systems and this new program is tailored to benefit both new and existing customers.
Within the volume license program, it will be easier for companies to move between different product editions and also between the different MCU architectures supported by IAR Embedded Workbench. In addition to this flexibility, the benefits also cover services and a software license subscription model for companies with many software engineers.
Stefan Skarin, CEO, IAR Systems commented, IAR Embedded Workbench is the most widely used tool suite for embedded systems development, with thousands of customers across the world who have chosen us thanks to our product quality and technical support. Many of our key accounts have customized agreements but we want to extend a flexible model also to all our other loyal customers, including those with smaller development departments. We are extremely proud of our loyal customers and this new program will give them an even better value from their software investment.
IAR Systems continues to have a strong position in the European embedded tools market and is very proud of the close relationships we have with many of our customers, commented Thomas Winkler, Director European Sales, IAR Systems. We are extremely pleased to announce this volume license program and firmly believe that it will benefit many of our European customers, as well as those in other regions.
By purchasing a new license of IAR Embedded Workbench customers enter the program at the level which their current licenses or intentions bring them to. The program allows customers to combine all IAR Embedded Workbench products they have for different target MCUs and covers all such products available at the time of purchase.
