It comes in three editions (Standard, CAD, and eXtreme) and runs on Windows. Whether you are focused mainly on using the PDF markups feature or you are a power user that wants to use Revu for complex automated processes, there is an edition of Bluebeam Revu that is right for you. Being able to determine that and being willing to change with the times isn't something everyone is ready to do.Bluebeam Revu is a software application that allows users to markup, organize, takeoff, and collaborate with PDF files. I think what is blurred for many MSPs is: Who is the actual customer? Is the MSP that is reselling a product or the end guy who is actually using it day to day. Kind of a bad example, because I loathe QB and am glad it is going away. The similar and recent changes to that model finally spurred people to get out of the products, all of which we have no established relationships or know how. We used to do a lot of Quickbooks reselling. Or splinter and start working the different stacks of different products. If enough people jump ship, then all of this knowledge is useless and he must start over with whatever he wants to start pushing. Now the stack of institutional knowledge of system quirks, benefits of this version, how to sell said product, etc. Open for discussion.Īlso, noticed the sub r/bluebeamrevu is locked down, anyway to get that open? Have to request to post.Īs the reseller, and most likely 1st line for support, having a product suddenly and drastically raise rates make clients start looking for alternatives. Let me know if I'm the only one that feels this way. I'm a reseller and not happy to share the news with my clients.

The biggest kick in the face is to Extreme license holders, right now, if you have 20 and on current maintenance, they are giving the standard users the same deal.Īs it stands, if you have an active maintenance plan (std or ext), you can migrate to 21 COMPLETE, then get about a 10% increase on the 2nd year, so you'll pay $109, 3rd year - $119 and so on, until you hit their MSRP (more if you're on extreme). You just pay full price every year and not a $99 sub price.

Instead of the purchase of software at $350 for standard and maintenance for $99, they now have 3 tiers of $240/$300/$400 per year. Bluebeam is trying to squeeze more money out of their client base and we need to let them know it's not appreciated. If you're here, I'm sure you're curious about the new bluebeam price increase.
