11:30 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All Daniel, I understand that you mentioned it in descriptions bbut on the first page of price your advirtisement says "try it and love it" people dont see anything
11:30 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All Trados has always had special prices in Bulgaria and Eastern Europe. Back in 2007 when I bought my first Trados license it cost 400 EUR, while everyone else was paying thousands.

11:31 Apr 8, 2014 Blandine-ATRIL: 1459982 All I did not think about this before, but since it is a very special event we need to be reactive
11:32 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All It was long argued that Trados upgrades were more frequent than Deja vu upgrades, but his has changed as well.
11:32 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Epa: that is indeed something we're considering, but not for the immediate future

11:34 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All regarding the discount, the point is to offer it to people who participate in the event

11:35 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All so, outside of the event, all we're saying is that we have special prices for participants
