A CrossManager licence includes:
- the conversion engine,
- a reading module for each file format to be read,
- a write module for each format to be written.
- quarterly updates (to be able to read and write the latest versions of native files),
- technical support.
As an example, in 2023, the annual price of a CrossManager solution at a single location to read 1 native format and convert it into 1 other is about €1500 (excl. VAT).
To read 3 native formats and write in 1 other, the price would be €2500 (excl. VAT).
CrossManager Advanced
CrossManager Advanced supports batch file conversions, That way, you can convert entire directories recursively, with no limitations.

How licences work
You must have a licence to use CrossManager.You can buy one by contacting us, or apply for a trial license to test the quality of the software.Each input or output format requires its own licence to work.That way, you can order your "à la carte" configuration according to your needs, and only buy the formats you need.We provide three types of licenses :- single licences, that operate on a single workstation.
- floating licences, installed on a licence server so that CrossManager can be used on different workstations. You can choose the number of “tokens”, which defines the number of users who can use the software simultaneously.
- remote licenses, installed on a single workstation, but which can be used remotely from another workstation. -
