Traditional licenses are no longer available for purchase. Traditional plans are available for clients who previously purchased a traditional license.

What is SAAS and Traditional?

Software As A Service (SAAS) and Traditional are different types of licenses. These licenses affect how CDM+ is purchased, how you access your data if you no longer want to use CDM+, and which services are bundled with the software license.
