This is a pretty good deal (actually very good) for any company who has let their maintenance go and now finds themself needing to be back on the plan so they can receive the latest software upgrades.

Under the terms of the spring specials – users can get back on HighTower software maintenance with no late or lapsed years fees, new HighTower users can buy one enhancement and get one free and existing HighTower end users can purchase any additional enhancement at 50% off.
