Hiroshi Posted September 11, 2021 Report Posted September 11, 2021 I have a Lifetime Pro license, why I need to buy a Premium license? Is the Premium a Lifetime license if I buy it?
Gulshan Dogra Posted September 13, 2021 Report Posted September 13, 2021 Hi @Hiroshi, Welcome to the Enpass community. On 9/11/2021 at 10:27 AM, Hiroshi said: I have a Lifetime Pro license, why I need to buy a Premium license? Under the premium license Enpass has two robust new features like 2FA Identification and Breach Monitoring. In order to take the benefits of these options Enpass encourages its users to move from pro to premium. Please visit this blogpost for more information.

You can refer to this link of our official website to know more about pricing details of Premium – Life Time Membership.
Hiroshi Posted September 14, 2021 Author Report Posted September 14, 2021 Thank you for your response. The price on link you sent to me is for new license purchase, there is no price for the upgrade from Pro to Premium. 1
Sher Posted September 17, 2021 Report Posted September 17, 2021 Is there an upgrade price from pro lifetime to premium lifetime? It was supposed to be lifetime so if I want to upgrade I should get a special price surely 3
SixOfNine Posted December 2, 2021 Report Posted December 2, 2021 Same here, enquiring minds want to know. It is completely incomprehensible that those who supported Enpass from the beginning and left their positive opinion in all those app stores for other users to know (or recommended it to their friends and family) have now to accept to be forced to buy a new lifetime licence again or change into a subscription scheme they hated from the beginning. If this should be the case at least I will not accept it without an adequate battle, give up Enpass completely and/or will at least do the same publicity as before but now in a very negative way. I published several IT magazines and am not motivated at all to tolerate such a behaviour.

Pro users on our platform will not be charged again and will never be forced to subscribe. Enpass does encourage its Pro Lifetime License holders to upgrade to Premium Lifetime License as it includes robust security features like 2FA Identification and Breach Monitoring, License conversion is completely user's choice and Enpass will respect that. The idea is not to take anything away from you as we go along, but to give you more security features. We do provide a discount to our registered Pro users (only) for upgrading to Premium. To know more about this contact us at support@enpass.io. We will continue to add more Pro-features without any additional cost, recent Pro-feature which we launched was Sync over WiFi (Cloudless Sync)

Unfortunately, I’ve never seen or received any Premium Lifetime Upgrade Offer for Pro users – it appears to be a much too well hidden secret. I saw some promotional offers like the $24.99 one from Stacksocial for new users but never anything for your existing user base. In my case I bought two licences: one for iOS/iPadOS and one for macOS, the latter one now given away for free, right? So I paid a total of around $7 less for Pro than Premium would have cost at e. g. Stacksocial and do not really understand why there are two licence universes at all. And probably like other Pro users I’m beginning to ask myself the question about this weird parallel universe I’m involuntarily living in as compared to the more comfortable one of Premium users. Well, I thought Pro would be situated more or less at the same level as Premium but I was obviously wrong. It seems to me there is no clear communication about this anywhere. Please accept my apologies if I’m wrong. 18 hours ago, Gulshan Dogra said: The idea is not to take anything away from you as we go along, but to give you more security features.

Thanks, I just did that and am eagerly waiting for the response. 18 hours ago, Gulshan Dogra said: We will continue to add more Pro-features without any additional cost, recent Pro-feature which we launched was Sync over WiFi (Cloudless Sync) Perhaps you disagree but the 2FA Identification feature already would be a security feature we Pro users did not get. And while I do not need Sync over WiFi (Cloudless Sync) I’d appreciate 2FA Identification. So it seems that Pro will never be a convenient solution for anyone if compared to Premium as Pro users have no influence at all about the features Enpass is deciding to include or not. This most definitely is not something owners of a lifetime licence ever did imagine. Edited December 3, 2021 by SixOfNine
SixOfNine Posted December 20, 2021 Report Posted December 20, 2021 Dear Enpass team, there seems to be some sort of a communication problem as I received absolutely no answer from your mail address support@enpass.io. I wrote twice (Fri, 3 Dec 2021 11:41:12 +0100 and Tue, 14 Dec 2021 09:49:23 +0100) and my messages didn’t bounce (I received replies from Enpass beforehand). I’m quite tired by this and would like to end my second class membership with Enpass. When I bought the Pro licence I never imagined that there would be a change in the licensing scheme taking me into some kind of a zombie customer position. This is ridiculous, thanks in advance for resolving this once and for all. 1
SixOfNine Posted January 8, 2022 Report Posted January 8, 2022 As Enpass did not reply, I bought a "Lifetime Premium" licence via StackSocial for around $30 (for those of you interested: hurry up as the promo will end in a couple of days). As I still had some money on my Stacksocial account for previous purchases I even paid $8 less. To resume this rather disappointing matter I have to determine that the Enpass service is far from acceptable (if not lousy) and that the only reason for me continuing the use of this software is comparable to my continuing use of Apple products which I also do not consider being of quality anymore but something like the lesser evil. Note to Enpass: lifetime should be lifetime – if you ever should decide that after Pro and Premium there should be Emperor or Excelsior licences, however, it will be without me. In the meantime I’ll enjoy leaving some comments here and there about the Enpass service approach. Thanks for nothing! 1

Just in case anyone else has landed here from a search, this is no longer true. I asked support what the discount would be if I upgraded from Pro to Premium and they replied "Currently, we do not have any ongoing promotional campaign. You can check the website for pricing and features." Extremely disappointing. 1

I do understand, that for "new features" at some point an upgrade fee would be acceptable, but not providing existing users with some sort of discount is some malpractice and not supporting of longtime users. I myself bought a lifetime Pro license I think back in 2016 and would willingly upgrade to Premium for a discounted fee, but ~100€ just for the feature to get 2FA and breach notifications? Thank you, but no. 1
