eValid™ -- The Web Quality Suite Browser-Based Client-Side Functional Testing and Validation Page Timing/Tuning Transaction Monitoring. WebSite Spidering & Analysis and Realistic Server Loading. © Copyright 2000-2012 by Software Research, Inc.

Summary
We are introducing a new way to make eValid website testing technology available that changes the business model for deployment of advanced technology tools.

Other firms have a policy that if you want to use their products on behalf of your client you have to convince your client to purchase a copy of the product.

For example, one large supplier of a server loading product -- one that costs upward of $100K -- won't let you apply the product outside your own company. So even if you actually own a copy of their product, you can't use it to deliver work to your customers.

As an Application Service Provider you need to have access to high-quality tools in a way that lets your clients benefit from your skilled use -- and that is what an eValid Commercial License is all about.

Commercial License Benefits
Here are some important benefits available when you use an eValid Commercial License:

• You always have access to the most-recent eValid version -- you'll have continuous access and can update your version any time.
• You can run eValid on as many machines inside your organization as you like.
• You can run eValid on rental machines if you wish, or on machines owned by a third party (e.g. in a testing lab that you rent temporarily).
• You can use your eValid commercial license to do your eValid work on your customers' machines if you want.
• All of the outputs are 100% on your local machine; there is no need to interact with the eValid website except for license authentication purposes.
• If your customer wishes to purchase eValid licenses -- which is NOT required, but which may happen -- we provide finders- fee or sales-commission compensation to you, depending on your level of eValid usage and what our specific agreement with you spells out.

Costs and ROI
The actual cost to use eValid on your project is scaled to be on a par with -- or possibly even somewhat less than -- your one-time costs for purchasing the corresponding eValid licenses for your entire team. You save because you pay only for what you use. We use web authentication to keep track of your monthly usage and to report the current status of your account. The report we provide you is suitable to use to report usage to your client if you wish to pass the cost on directly.

eValid Commercial License typically involve a basic monthly account maintenance cost, plus low per-use costs. You can expect to recover your monthly investment very quickly, and make a nice profit, based on your level of usage and the size of your service contract.
