  1. You should be able to get a developmental license from Blesta directly... but you'd need to talk to Paul about it, as LicenseCart is correct in that Paul issues dev licenses at his discretion.

     

    We have an Owned Unbranded license with LicenseCart and I was able to get a development license directly with Blesta when I asked if I could have one. I haven't set the dev install of Blesta up yet as I've been researching and planning how to implement the module we intend to develop. We suspect it'll be a fairly large module as it requires quite a bit of work to make it happen.

     

    And... yeah, LicenseCart is crazy-fast in responding through various mediums. In fact, more often than not, when I'm posting somewhere, he usually shows up almost directly after I've posted.

     

    Just a little bit scary... but in a good way! If you want flexibility with selling licenses and the like to your own customers... LicenseCart is the way to go.

     

    I'd go with LC over BuycPanel any day, that's a fact.

     

    Thank you Keiro; I've now have an unbranded monthly license with LicenseCart :) I'm not sure if Paul would give me a dev license seeing as though I'm on a monthly license though  :unsure:

  2. Ah, good luck mate sounds like you have a lot on your plate  :huh:

     

    Thank you Michael for all your help  B)

     

    Can I just ask a few last questions? :$

     

    When I buy a license through licensecart will my Blesta installation automatically "see" the license? I ask because the "buy license" link in my Blesta installation only goes to the official site.

     

    I'm thinking of running Blesta on a subdomain, are Blesta licenses domain based or are they tied to a sub domain? (incase I change my mind about what subdomain to use). Is their any problems with running Blesta off a subdomain?

     

    Thanks  :)

  3. You're more than welcome mate.

     

    I've never been a fan of Enom myself, and there's a third party OpenSRS module to support that, but if you need prices cheaper ResellerClub now owned by EIG (not a nice company) but they are cheap. Blesta uses the LogicBoxes module for that.

     

    Yeah the best way is just to use Stripe for card payments using their token system.

     

    I can't say sorry I would say it wouldn't be allowed as it's a monthly license, but Paul can explain that when they are in the office, but you get a 30 day trial which you could use as a development license until it expires.

     

    I think I'll stick with OpenSRS for now then; I'd rather have quality products/services that I have confidence in. Stripe looks awesome thanks  B)

     

    I have already got the Blesta demo on my site, it expires on Saturday but I am undergoing heavy re-branding and restructuring at the moment so I have some time to work on my Blesta installation before my new site will go live to my clients anyway.

     

    if you are in UK, have you tried resell.biz as a registrar ?

    for a marchent account , i believe stripe is the best one in the market .

     

    Thanks naja7host, resell.biz looks good I've added them to my bookmarks  :)

     

    For domains, we use NetEarthOne. They also use logicboxes but are not EiG-owned and prices are great.

     

    Thanks Scott I'll look into them too  :)

  4. Thank you for your reply Michael  :)

     

    I already have an account with OpenSRS, I was wondering if a swap to eNom was a good idea because Blesta already has a stable eNom module. And LicensePal's eNom domain prices seem to be $9.45 (http://www.licensepal.com/partner_enom.php) quite a bit cheaper on .com and .net on what OpenSRS charges me (other than those two points I'm fairly happy with OpenSRS).

     

    The merchant account is a no go for me if it is US only as I'm in the UK. I've looked at the merchant service's website and it made me wary that you have to hand over a lot of your personal details before they'd give you their prices too.

     

    I'm looking to use a Blesta monthly unbranded license for now, but an owned license is a possibility in the future. Can I have a Blesta development installation on my local machine without a development license or is it irrelevant whether or not the site is local or remote?

     

    Thank you  :)

  5. Hello everybody,

     

    I have decided to buy a Blesta monthly license but I can't decide where to buy it from. I think LicensePal is my favoured reseller atm as they offer a free eNom account and merchant account. I already have a (mostly dormant) OpenSRS account but I wondered if the eNom account LicensePal give free is worth going with them? I'm thinking that because the OpenSRS Blesta module is only in an alpha state and eNom's prices seem to be better than OpenSRS. And do any of LicensePal customers have any opinions on the free merchant account? Is it any better than PayPal?

     

    Another option is LicenseCart. Are the prices on their site the end price? I've noticed LicensePal's prices exclude VAT and LicensePal are very much more active on Twitter and these forums than LicensePal.

     

    The other option I am thinking about is buying direct. I heard that buying a license direct you get a free developer license with it, what does that do? does it allow you to run Blesta on a testing server or does it mean you can sell modules or something else? Is there a different way to get a developer license?
