AMANNGIRRBACH INNOVATIONS

SOFTWARE SUBSCRIPTIONS NOW AVAILABLE ZOLID ZIRCONIA - AS SUCCESSFUL AS EVER

Amann Girrbach offers a new service: as part of the Performance
Plans, customers will in future not only have the option of buying
software programs, but also of renting them. Lower entry costs, flex-
ible selection options and included upgrades are the major benefits.
The new Performance Plans will be available from May 2022.
The new Performance Plans represent an alternative to purchas-
ing. The prices for the software plans include the license as well as
upgrades. New upgrades are made available on a regular basis so
that customers can benefit from new workflows to optimize work
processes, from new indications and materials, or from process opti-
mizations - for example, through more efficient milling strategies.
The number of included software modules can be adapted flexibly to
the respective requirements. In addition, customers have a choice of
different plans for hardware maintenance and repair. Details can be
requested from the designated dealer.
"The idea behind the new Performance Plans is to offer our cus-
tomers an all-round carefree package. Our customers should always
be in a position to use our system optimally and be up to date at all
times - the flexible solutions tailored to their individual needs make
this possible while at the same time keeping entry costs low. As
from May 2022, customers will therefore be able to decide for them-
selves whether they wish to buy or rent the CAD/CAM software
license. By doing so, Amann Girrbach is following the cross-industry
trend towards subscription models," explains James Rushton, Head In 2022, AmannGirrbach will be celebrating two anniversaries at once: 15 years of
