I don't like limiting anyone to older versions. As the OP said, it's difficult to maintain. You'd have to be aware of every bugfix and improvement so that when they want a feature or bugfix, you know to direct them to the latest version. It's easier if everyone's on the latest version or at least can update if they feel that might solve their problem. It might be a way to satisfy both people who want a perpetual license and to get recurring revenue and pay for future development, but it's kind of arbitrary to make the distinction at version numbers instead of features or easily-identified packages of features. |

You don’t maintain it, if you need a bug fix or new feature you have to upgrade to the newest perpetual license. IMO this is a much better model than the subscription model.
