Liked Jason’s post in the thread Perch Roadmap & Updates.Like (Post)Commercially we are exploring new options like Kirby CMS as we are struggling to sell Perch to larger clients due to a lack of roadmap / regular updates / bug fixes.
From a business point of view we need more reassurance. We have a few projects to… -

Liked hus_hmd’s post in the thread Perch v4 license model.Like (Post)As Stephen Meehan stated, when you look at the update history page you can sense it is not being actively developed (although we know v4 is being worked on). First-party add-ons have been neglected too:

Liked Tobe’s post in the thread Perch v4 license model.Like (Post)I'd like to echo everyone's sentiment here – I'll be more than happy to pay to renew a license every year to get the latest version – BUT, like Stephen says, I'd want assurances that support and update rates are going to improve. 1 update in the… -

Liked hus_hmd’s post in the thread Perch v4 license model.Like (Post)I personally think it would be a reasonable change. It is not a model where you have to pay to keep using the software. You can use the software forever. You just don't get free updates forever. There are a number of software companies that started… -

Liked hus_hmd’s post in the thread Perch v4 license model.Like (Post)Hello,
On Perch's 10th anniversary Perch v4 was announced. The announcement also mentioned how the current license model has become unsustainable and that a new license model was proposed:

Liked Stephen Meehan’s post in the thread Perch v4 license model.Like (Post)There is so much support for Perch, everyone (in the Slack group) wants it to succeed and grow. The current buy once and receive free support/updates forever obviously isn't sustainable. I welcome a move to an annual license update.
However, it really…
