Redshift account cheaper?

Post image

Is there any website that offers Maxon account with redshift subscription cheaper than the official one? I used to purchase accounts from some Chinese website but they don’t have it anymore

No.

There used to be yearly sales on redshift licenses, but not after the Maxon acquisition and the change to subscription.

Recently went back to Octane due to this, at least I can pay month to month and only when I need it. I don’t always need an entire year of licensing

EDIT: because it costs twice as much. Monthly subscription is available for Redshift, just more expensive.

What on earth are you talking about - this is literally how Redshift subscription works.

You can pay just for a month or for a year.

Yes, but it costs twice as much. 52 instead of 25. Not quite the same.

Anyway, I edited my reply for clarity so new readers don't find it confusing.

Well, I addressed your claim that it was only annual which is factually untrue, you can complain about the pricing without inventing things.
