While everybody is moving to subscriptions, I'll try to move away from subscriptions!
They're just too tricky for small applications. Let's be honest => Most of the time a small application like our One Time Username or ACP Profile Link is coded once and probable never ever changed while the whole lifetime of the Invision Community 5 series, so in my opinion a subscription based price with automatic yearly renewals is not fair to my clients.
Other applications, like our upcoming Support System, will require frequent maintenance work, so here it will make sense to have a yearly subscription.
We had also a discussion about "one app to please them all vs many smaller apps" and here I can tell you that we're moving forward with the separate applications route!
You'll only need do install/purchase what you want and need! I expect that most people here will benefit of this change, because they'll really only purchase and renew what they need, instead of paying for the whole application where they probably need only 10% of it's feature base!
I know that some are disappointed now, it also means more work for me, but it's way easier to maintain applications now.
Another advantage of this is, that now more applications can share the same feature ( more TBA;) )
I'd love to hear your feedback here.
