Thoroughbred Annual Maintenance Program Features and Benefits

All Thoroughbred products can be covered by our Annual Maintenance Program. Periodically Thoroughbred provides updated software that includes enhancements, new features, support for new operating systems, error corrections and performance increases. As a subscriber to Thoroughbred’s Annual Maintenance Program you are eligible for the updates when they are made available for a small media charge.

Developers and Thoroughbred End-Users can take advantage of new product release features and technology that didn’t exist before, including Web technologies. Upgrading from the Thoroughbred Environment to OPENworkshop, XML or T-WEB can be a significant cost savings if the product is covered by the Thoroughbred Annual Maintenance Program. Products including DataSafeGuard, the XML DataServer and Solution-IV applications will require the latest release of Thoroughbred Products to operate correctly.

Thoroughbred Products not on the Annual Maintenance Program will be assessed a Trade-In Value to determine the upgrade cost based on the purchase date of the product, see the chart below:
