Start 11 upgrade pricing.

from Stardock Forums

I have 7 start 10 stand alone licenses I purchased for my families computers and my parents computers.  When I try to inquire about update pricing on the website it tells me it comes with my Object Desktop license.  I would like to get 7 Start 11 Licenses so that all my machines are ready when Windows 11 releases.  I will also need a Curtains 11 upgrade license as well when it releases if there is upgrade pricing for it since I purchased another license for that stand alone as well when it releases.   Thanks in advance and keep up the great work.  I have used all of your software for years and will keep using it as long as you keep releasing updates.

Hello,
From what I know price for Start11 is as mentioned here : https://www.stardock.com/products/start11/download or for Curtains 11, there is no official announcement on it yet.

Thanks

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

Your Object Desktop license will already allow for 5 concurrent activations of all the member products.  We will have more information on upgrade options for additional seats as it nears release. 

Thanks for your feedback and patronage.

There is an upgrade pricing options but it appears to be broken.  If you type in your email address it does not see you have stand alone seats if you have an Object Desktop license.   If it does not work properly as they are aware of in this other thread I found on the forums then they should remove the link from the website till it is resolved.

You are already aware of this issue.  You even commented your team is having an issues with resolving it in this thread.

I choose to buy separate licenses for each machine as I want to support a company that provides what I consider a valued product and since 4 of these computers are not under my roof.  I can wait till you sort out the issue.  I also believe that the spirit of the license is one per each machine.

Not sure when you tried but it is working with the email address you have for your account:

Actually did you press get it now?   It doesn't give me an option to upgrade my Start10 Licenses to Start11 for what I am guessing would be 2.99 a seat as the previous upgrade from 8 to 10 was.  It gives me an option to upgrade my object desktop another year for 19.99.  While that is a great price I have already paid for my subscription to be active for Object desktop and WinCustomize until 2025.  I took a screenshot below of the issue.

Quick update.   When I closed the tab i had open making the previous post.  The tab I was using for screenshots I noticed had something in the shopping cart.  I saw Start11 for 3.99 so I purchased 7 upgrade licenses.  While it did add it to my cart and I was able to purchse there is some confusion still on what it displayed when you press get it now.  Thanks for getting it fixed enough to purchase the software.  Looking forward to Curtains compatible with Windows 11 soon.  Keep up the great work and thanks Sean.
