Corel Launches Unrestricted Site Licence for Education
New academic site licence opens up opportunities for resellers to offer schools, colleges and universities an extended range of Corel’s graphics multimedia and utility products
Maidenhead, UK Monday 21 November – The Canadian software company Corel, has launched a new unrestricted academic site licence that will enable education resellers to offer an easier and more affordable way for schools, colleges and universities to incorporate professional-level graphics, multimedia and utility software into lessons, projects and course work.
The Corel Academic Site Licence (CASL) dispenses with restrictions on the number of computers and usage reporting imposed by other software vendors to give education establishments a simpler way of deploying a wide range of Corel’s leading graphics, multimedia and utility titles. These include CorelDRAW®, Corel® PaintShop™ Pro, Corel® VideoStudio®, Corel® Painter™, Corel DESIGNER® and CorelCAD™, as well as the utility products WinZip® Pro for easy compression of large files, and Corel® PDF Fusion™ for affordable PDF editing.
“Graphics and multimedia are vital career skills for today’s pupils and students, but many software vendors place unrealistic restrictions on the use of software across schools and campuses and insist on software usage reporting that is difficult and time consuming for IT administrators”, said Brett Denly, VP EMEA Sales and Marketing at Corel. “Our new site license offers our academic customers the widest range of graphics, multimedia and utility software in the industry in a license programme that is easy to understand, deploy and administer. It also offers incredible value. This is a unique sales proposition for our academic resellers and provides a real opportunity to generate incremental recurring revenue streams.”
Jeffrey Pugh, Managing Director at Pugh Computers adds: “Here at Pugh we are always looking for products and services that offer our customers real value for money, and the new Corel Academic Site Licence is just that; a genuine value proposition that will make it easier and more affordable for all levels of education to access high-quality graphics and multimedia products.”
The Corel Academic Site Licence is an easy-to-administer one or three year subscription licence that includes unrestricted access to CorelDRAW, Corel PaintShop Pro, Corel VideoStudio, Corel Painter, Corel PDF Fusion and WinZip. Secondary schools, further and higher education colleges and universities also have the option to include Corel DESIGNER and CorelCAD. Corel software is widely used across the creative and design industries, making it the perfect choice for equipping today’s students and pupils with essential skills for the new digital workplace.
Pricing for the Corel Academic Site Licence is tiered to suit different types and sizes of academic institution, offering incredible value across the range from the village primary school to the largest university.
