Optional subscription:

If you want to continue developing and maintain your application(s) in Magic, you can sign up for our Maintenance & Support program, which is priced at 20% of the optional one-time conversion fee, per application, per year. While on Maintenance, you can convert your application(s) as many times as you want at no additional cost. Conversions are fully automated and even the largest applications will convert and compile in minutes after the initial one-time set-up.

Additional info per line item:

The line items above are all we charge for, but they are just of subset of what we deliver and what is required for a complete functioning system. We also provide our application functionality warranty at no additional cost.

[1] Deployment support for functionality such as logical names is included.

[2] All the default settings for task behavior, such as locking, transaction handling and much more are included in the flat fee per task.

[3] All the default properties of a form are included.

[4] Magic operations are very powerful and can have many sub-parameters, all of which are included.

[5] Magic expressions can be very complex and include Magic Actions, Magic Functions, Magic Literals and much more, all of which are included.

[6] Magic form controls, such as table controls and list boxes are very dynamic. All their default behavior is included.

[7] Every GUI object in Magic has a wide range of properties. Most developers leave most properties set to their default. This line item includes properties where the developer deviated from the default. An example of a non-default property would be a selection program assigned to an edit control, in which case all the functionality required to convert that would be included for this very low flat rate.

[18] An LDAP Rights server (which makes managing rights easier and even single sign-on an option) is included at no extra charge.
