Subsembly: the Smart Solution for Smart Cards in .NET - How much does it cost?
(Page 5 of 5 )
As explained above, a lot of flavors of Subsembly are available and can be purchased to match your requirements and budget. Personally I believe the prices are nominal for a quality product like Subsembly. Below are the versions offered with their pricing details:
Smartcard Subsembly for .NET
- Smartcard Subsembly (Professional) Development Kit EUR 198,00
- Smartcard Subsembly (PC/SC Edition) EUR 98,00
- Smartcard Subsembly (CT-API Edition) EUR 98,00
Are there any deployment issues?
I mentioned earlier that you’re free to distribute the binary versions of the Subsembly Assemblies with your product without paying anything once you’ve obtained a license for Subsembly. It’s royalty free, and free email support is provided as a bonus.
With the copy and paste approach of .Net deployment, the Subsembly works fine. But you may choose to deploy it in the GAC if you’re shipping several applications that use these assemblies.
Where do I get it?
You may try Subsembly for free by downloading it from the Subsembly website. It also contains other, similar products that you might be interested in. Just visit http://subsembly.com for a download of the trial version. You can download the professional edition, and it doesn’t have a time limit for trial. But I’m sure once you get used to it, you’ll soon be deploying all your Smart Card enabled applications using Subsembly.
