I know you gotta eat and you make great software. I would have bought instantly without hesitation. That's only half of what you paid last time and you get new functionality. You still have Drawboard as you're used to it, but if you want to access these we're asking for an additional $5. Hey person who paid for Drawboard a few years ago. Pleasantly surprised I went in and the interface was brilliant.

So I Googled and the top result was your Wiki.

I needed that feature in a pinch the other night. I've used Acrobat and PDFSam and other free tools, but frankly I'd rather have one app. Merging PDFs and removing pages or adding pages has always been a pain. When Drawboard launched it did something Adobe didn't: allow annotations. What would work for everyone, consumers and developers ? We are open for ideas for both - subscription and base version of the app - how can we make it better and keep sustainable to be supported, developed and updated not only for a next year but few years and more. This is a genuine question and I can say, that your thread is being read by few people in Drawboard. What would be your suggestion for pricing model?

While as a consumer I'm fully on your side, and I prefer not to have my essential tools as subscription, as a developer who puts food on the table by building software - I don't know any other good model how to sell product that can be constantly updated and improved and have an ethical model of monetization (not ads or selling users data harvested from a "free" app). Understand your frustration, I had few products that I bought few years ago (ranging from 10 to $200 per license) which were not being updated after a year or two after purchase, companies simply released "vNext+1" and said - "Old license is not compatible, we can give you a discount on your new purchase".ĭrawboard PDF went from v1.0 to current v.5.30.x one the same $10-15, you and other users paid few years ago (and many users got it cheaper as it's often on various promotions or for free as part of the surface pre-install bundle).
