IMPACT Coverage
All enterprise software products are licensed annually, and include IMPACT. IMPACT may be purchased at an additional fee for all products that have perpetual licenses.
Software Versions
Software updates are offered to IMPACT Ultimate Support members periodically. Software updates usually contain new drivers, bug fixes or minor enhancement to the software. A software update is not a full software package. Software updates can be downloaded, only if there is a prior version of the software installed on your computer and you are a member of the IMPACTUltimate Support Program. When a software update becomes available, members are notified by email.
Software upgrades are new software versions that are available for purchase. Software upgrades are often offered to IMPACT Ultimate Support members at a discount.
We recommend that all eligible clients participate in updates when they are available, and that everyone keep their software up-to-date. ISD reserves the right to discontinue support of old versions of software, or to charge an upgrade fee when software is more than two versions old. In general, software that is more than two versions old will not be supported.

IMPACT Renewal
IMPACT members are contacted for renewal in advance of their expiration date to prevent program or service disruption.
To receive support, your IMPACT membership must be current.
If a customer without IMPACT requires emergency support, ISD will provide such services on an hourly fee based on the current ISD rates. Such service is provided only to clients paying with a valid credit card. Minimum billable service time applies.
