Because Sandvik is a tool company, not a software company ? If they look at it as a way to sell more tooling, they will do whatever customers want instead of what they want.My thoughts on this and what will happen....
Mastecam WILL move to subscription only and online licensing just like Fusion is doing. It seems to be the play for any public company hocking software, don't see why Sandvik will want to do things any different.
Software companies have to go subscription because otherwise, they got nothin'. People don't have to buy new stuff, the 2020 version works fine. If they don't pull that option off the table, they'll have to downsize or go broke, and the CEO will be on $300 a week unemployment.
Sandvik is different. No guarantees that some mush-brained executive won't get the brilliant idea to bleed their customers too, but better chances than with any software company.
Did you mean SAC ? Software As Chains ?SAAS is life now.
