Software testing needs are evolving, and so are we. After listening to customer feedback, we’re excited to introduce subscription licensing for Ranorex Studio and DesignWise. This new option complements our perpetual licenses, offering teams a flexible, scalable, and cost-effective way to enhance their test automation strategies. Best of all, subscription licensing reflects our commitment to delivering the best test automation tools that adapt to your needs and align with industry trends.

💻 Flexible Licensing for Dynamic Teams

Perpetual licenses have long been a reliable option, offering stability and long-term value. However, as software testing becomes more dynamic, flexibility and scalability are increasingly essential. Ranorex’s subscription licensing meets these demands with lower upfront costs, predictable annual pricing, and the ability to scale as your needs evolve.

This model is especially beneficial for agile teams and startups:

  • Cost-Effective Entry: Lower upfront costs reduce financial barriers, making robust test automation tools accessible for smaller teams and startups.
  • Flexibility for Agile Development: Quickly scale resources up or down to match changing project requirements.
  • Collaboration Across Teams: The concurrent usage model enables distributed teams and multi-shift operations to share licenses efficiently, supporting seamless collaboration.

And, just in case you’re wondering—if you’re an existing customer, you can continue using your perpetual licenses without any changes.

🚀 Ranorex Subscription Licensing Key Features

Concurrent Usage

Ranorex Studio Enterprise and Runtime subscription licenses are tied to the number of seats, not specific machines. This means you can install the software on multiple machines and share access among team members, provided the concurrent usage matches the number of purchased seats. For example, if you buy five seats, five testers can use Ranorex simultaneously, whether they work in shifts or across different locations.

Flexible Pricing

Subscription licensing offers lower upfront costs than perpetual licenses, making it an attractive option for startups, agile teams, and companies prioritizing operating expenses (OPEX) over capital expenses (CAPEX).

Scalable Growth

As your team or testing requirements grow, subscription licensing makes it easy to add more seats. This scalability ensures that you’re only paying for what you need—streamlining costs and keeping resources aligned with your organizational growth.

🏁 Get Started With Subscription Licensing

Flexible, scalable, and cost-effective—subscription licensing is designed to help your team adapt to changing demands, scale effortlessly, and minimize upfront costs. Whether you’re a growing startup or an established team embracing agility, this new licensing model ensures you have the right tools to innovate faster and test smarter. Interested?
