About Our Products
Valentina Studio is Paradigma Software’s powerful database management software. The PRO version also includes the design tool for designing reports used by Valentina Reports for Xojo (for embedding a powerful reports engine in your Xojo app). The base version of Valentina Studio is free and available on macOS, Windows & Linux. Competitive upgrades available from products like Navicat, Datagrip and others.

ValentinaDB is Paradigma Software advanced, object relational database and available in Valentina DB Server (a part of Valentina Server) and ValentinaDB ADKs (developer components for adding runtime database support to applications), including Valentina Database ADK for Xojo. Valentina Database ADK for Xojo includes support for SQLite (with SQLCipher support), DuckDB and ValentinaDB.

Valentina Reports is a powerful reporting design and deployment system. With Valentina Reports ADK for Xojo, you can embed Valentina Reports in your Xojo apps.

Valentina Server incorporates Valentina Reports Server, Valentina Forms Server and three database servers: ValentinaDB Server, Valentina DuckDB Server and Valentina SQLite Server. Available for Windows, Linux (x86, ARM64), macOS and Raspberry PI. VDN is also available that lets you include OEM copies of Valentina Server with your solution at no added cost (on all supported operating systems). Turn your single user app into a true client-server or server only solution.

So I must purchase 3 years to get the same discount of 50% as before?

No, that’s no fun :slight_smile:

For Studio PRO & Studio PRO Universal, we discount accordingly (as of now) when it comes to extra time:

Current / Original is RENEW for 12 months. That’s 40% off of the NEW price
Add another 12 months (total 24 months). The second 12 months is 50% off the NEW price
Add another 12 months (total 36 months) The third 12 months is 60% off of the NEW price

So the ‘total 36 months’ = 40% discount (12) + 50% discount (+12) + 60% discount (+12) is the best deal.

We get some customers for which annual renewal are painful, because their permissions to spend are tied in up red tape and are a long process that involves bureaucrats. For them especially, being able to pay ahead for three years saves them grief.

If you just want to renew like you do every year, you can. No changes to previous pricing.

We did also make smoother volume purchases as well for up to 25 copies.
