  Q: What is the difference between a Volume Licensing and Box Licensing?
  A: Box licenses are sold in large retail chains across the country. They are primarily intended for Home end-users that only need one or two copies of the software. Volume Licensing is intended for businesses or organizations that have a need for numerous licenses. Due to the high quantity of licensees ordered, Volume Licensing has lower prices than box licensing. Also, most volume licenses can be managed from one console, rather than from each computer.

  Q: What am I buying?
  A: You are buying licenses. This means that you will receive a unique license code for each license that you purchase.

  Q: What will you send me in the mail?
  A: If you buy a new CA license you will receive a media kit along with a license certificate. If you are renewing your CA licenses with us you will receive an email with your updated key codes. If you are buying any Shavlik products you will receive an email with your key codes. If you are buying Attachmate you will be sent a media kit.

  Q: Do I have to pay shipping & handling costs?
  A: There is a standard shipping charge of $20, but only for orders that require a media to be shipped.

  Q: How long will shipping take?
  A: The average order takes approximately one week. We receive your licenses from the publisher in 2-3 days and ship it to you that very day, which takes 2-3 days to deliver.

  Q: I need this license today, can you email me my license codes?
  A: We recommend that you install the trial version of the product. After you receive your full-license key codes, you can go live directly from your trial. Contact us if you have any questions.

  Q: I lost my license codes, can you help me?
  A: Yes, we can help, call us toll free 800.726.4099 and we will direct you to the right resource.

  Q. Can I add licenses that I didn't purchase through Productive to my account?
  A. Absolutely. Please contact your Account Executive for more details.

  Q: I only need one license; can you sell me licenses under five?
  A: If you need a small quantity of licenses, please visit our Online Shop for expedited service. Existing customers have an Account Executive available to discuss available options.

  Q: I need over 49 licenses; can you give me a discount?
  A: With volume licensing there are price breaks depending on the number of licenses you are buying. Call us toll free 800.726.4099 and an Account Executive can help match your needs with an appropriate level of volume license breaks.

  Q: How do I pay for my licenses?
  A: The Productive Corporation online store requires payment through a credit card. The website is a secure internet connection, so your credit card information is protected.

  Q: Why shouldn't I buy these licenses directly from the manufacture?
  A: These software publishers do not directly sell their products. They have a reseller channel set-up so that we can give you the individual attention that you deserve. The manufacture provides technical support for their products, but all purchasing goes through the reseller of your choice.

  Q: Will I be seeing an invoice?
  A: Yes, we send an invoice out immediately after we order the product

  Q: Why is a Trade Reference form required?
  A: For new customers to receive payment terms from us we need you to provide us with your trade references. Up front payment is also accepted in the form of a credit card or check if trade references are not possible. You can download the file here.

  Q: What happens if I let my maintenance expire and I want get back on it?
  A: You will need to upgrade at a higher cost per license than what a renewal cost would be.

  • Attachmate: 206-217-7000
  • Ca Security/Storage: 800-225-5224
