In addition to local PDS support by native speaking PDS engineers, flexera offers a number of maintenance plans that are fine-tuned to meet your specific needs. Each maintenance plan is per licensed user and allows you to submit unlimited support requests for 12 months.
Maintenance Plans are available for current flexera products.

The flexera Maintenance Plan is the smartest way to buy. When you include a maintenance plan in your purchase, you get the latest version of your software free on release via download or physical delivery, saving time and freeing you from purchase order red tape. The Maintenance Plan includes:
- A complete, paid upgrade to your flexera product guaranteed for twelve months from purchase date
- No extra shipping costs
- No purchase order hassles for new releases
- A convenient way to budget for upgrades annually
You'll be notified when a new release is available and
have the choice of immediately downloading a copy, receiving physical media
through the mail, or both. And when you order your plan, you'll receive a
convenient Subscription Card to record your Subscription Plan Number and
review plan details. You can even transfer the plan to another member of
your organization if your responsibilities change.
