Lower your costs

Rocket Terminal Emulator is licensed for flexibility. Our licensing model gives you:

  • A choice between Rocket Terminal Emulator's Web Edition or the Desktop Edition, or a license that includes both
  • Concurrent or named user options
  • Subscription or perpetual license options
  • Upgrades are always included with your maintenance

Our pricing leads the industry because we know that while critical, terminal emulation can't break the bank. Unlike some vendors, we work together with our customers. From pricing to support to additional sales, we value trust over audits, and partnership over litigation.

With decades of experience and tooling designed to streamline the migration from your current emulator, we can ensure a smooth transition to an enterprise-class alternative at a fraction of the cost.
