The creators of JAWs and ZoomText have announced an improved way to keep magnification and screen reader software current and effective. JAWS and ZoomText are transitioning to a subscription model, making it easier to access the latest features and support.
In the past, getting new updates meant purchasing upgrades or Software Maintenance Agreements (SMA) for your software. The new subscription model changes that. Think of it as a continuous subscription that keeps your software fresh and performing at its best, without needing to buy a new program each time there's an improvement.
Users with subscriptions will then be able to access all future updates, new features and ongoing support for as long as the agreement is active.
What does this mean for older versions?
If you own an older version of JAWS or ZoomText software, we encourage you to learn how this change can benefit you directly. Upgrading to the subscription model ensures you won't miss out on important enhancements and continuous smooth operation.
