A Reminder Why Software4Students Is Awesome


Let Go Of Outdated Software Pricing. 

by SoftwareGuru


For the Doubting Thomas among you... Guardians! Parents! Students! Lend me your ears.

Some people despite all of the Facebook Testimonials, newspaper mentions and link from Microsoft.com themselves - still find it hard to believe that our prices and software are genuine. Why is that?

Why do people still think that home use software should cost hundreds of pounds?

The answer lies in the idea that perception is reality.

Once people convince themselves of something - in this case that 1999 software prices are still valid in 2009 - it can be almost impossible to convince them otherwise.

To not understand the pricing change for home software is to fail to understand how broadband internet has changed everything.

In 2009, making money from digital products is a tough battlefield and the tactics are fierce.


























Let's remind ourselves why Software4Students is the best place online to buy cheap student software for home use.

We're 100% Legal and Low Priced for a reason.

Broadband-enabled download piracy and free software alternatives has changed the way big companies like Microsoft, Adobe and Kaspersky approach home user software.

If you think home software should cost several hundreds of pounds then you're still in the 1999 mindset.

Software4Students is an Official Microsoft Reseller and our job is to make sure parents and students don't pay corporate prices.

Inotherwords, you can now buy full version software at academic prices for home use.

Our software comes directly from Microsoft themselves and alongside the serial key (located on the back of the CD/DVD sleeve) even has a shiny hologram mark they put on there for security reasons.

To prevent abuse of this service, strict licensing restrictions from Microsoft means that each student is only entitled to purchase ONE software license of each product.
Changing Attitudes Towards Digital Content.

People's attitudes towards digital content are not the same as they were a few years ago.

Sure, Napster in its heyday was popular but broadband wasn't as common or as fast back then.

Now people are likely to buy (if they buy music at all) a Top 40 album from Tesco and pay at least £5 less than they would have just a few years ago for ten to fourteen songs on average.

From a software point of view, the likes of Microsoft are offering parents, guardians and students bargains such as Microsoft Office for £35 because it's a wise business strategy.

For a price that low, that offers such incredible value for money, why bother with a pirate version?

For less than a console game you can enjoy all the features, free updates and benefits that come with owning an official version without risk of unwittingly installing something nasty onto your laptop or PC.

We know that trust and confidence has to be earned.

At Software4Students we post the latest info through our Blog, Articles section and Twitter account and our Customer Service team are available to answer your concerns.

Are you ready to trust us yet?
