Dassault v Autodesk Pricing models

[stevsmith]

I really don't understand why Dassault Systems doesn't adopt the Autodesk purchasing model by giving transparency on the cost of their software on thier website and allow direct purchasing of subscriptions via the website.

 

Personally, I hate talking to sales people. I want it to be simple and buy as I need and cancel when i want without the hassle of doing it over the phone.. Just so you know, I'm put off buying Solidworks and currently opting for inventor because of this even though I'm far more adpet at using SW than INV..

 

I know people from Dassault and SW frequent this forum.. You should pitch this.
