How invoicing works?
If the Free version is not enough for your needs, you may switch to another plan.
- Switch to Start-up Plan
You must contact us so we can agree on the Number of Deployments you will need for the coming twelve (12) months.Before we give you more Deployments, you will be invoiced for the amount corresponding to 12 months subscription for the Number of Deployments we agreed.
At renewal of the subscription, we retrieve the real Maximum Number of Deployments you’ve actually used during the 12 months period. If this number is lower than the one we agreed, we take off the corresponding amount from the renewal invoice. (We reimburse you if you don’t want to renew!) If this number is greater than the one we agreed, we charge you for the difference on the renewal invoice, and adjust the Number of Deployments previously agreed for your subscription to this new value. (We only charge you the difference if you don’t want to renew.)

We have been impressed not only with the product itself and its documentation, but with STUDIO BODs support as well. At Delacor, we have now decided to use BLT for building our excecutables, licensing them when it makes sense and to track error reports from some applications. […] We have tried other solutions in the past, and this has been the best experience for us by far.
