Piirates move into E Digitizing
Software Pirates have moved into the Embroidery Digitizing software, buyer beware. Here is some things to look out for when buying E.D. software, If the price is two good to be true chances are its an illegal copy, you shouldn't purchase E.D. software with any non-refundable forms of money such as money order or check. The reasons for not getting pirated software is you can get in big trouble form the software companies even sued if they find out your using pirated software also The big Software companies have to increase the price of the product due to loss from pirated software. Has any of the members here run into pirated software or would buy it knowing it was pirated?

I have seen pirated Wilcom 9 but it only runs on window 98. I know of two shops that use it for their production. I don't think they really save much, they lose out on updated programs, risk viruses , and it is illegal and imoral. And someone , like a disgrunteled employee could turn them in. Kind of like driving without insurance, no problems until you have an accident.

Or better still you should turn them in?
I think we all have a responsability to the industry. Every business that is trading illegally is stealing customers from you, as they can offer their products cheaper. |

Most digitising software can be downloaded in pirated form. Honestly, if you're silly enough to use pirated software, you can atleast make the effort and find it on emule or torrents, instead of wasting money and giving it to profiteers.
I've seen everything from Tajima DG/ML, Basepac 5.01, and also Wilcom. Not to mention other low-end software like Drawings and stuff like that. I prefer to support the creators of the software. And after all - if you're in the embroidery business, you're making money with the software, so it's only fair you give something back in return. Just 2 days ago, at the IMB fair 2009 in Koln, my firm exchanged two Gis BasePac 6 dongles for the latest Gis BasePac 7 dongles. Price for the upgrade: 1000 euros for 2 systems (but we do have both systems with the most advanced modules activated, hence the price). That's what I call dedication. |
