New QuarkXPress Maintenance Programme Offers Free Upgrades

Tuesday 27. April 2010 - Quark launches new QuarkXPress Maintenance Programme for users to receive unlimited priority technical support and future upgrades free of charge

Quark Inc. today launched its new QuarkXPress Maintenance Programme offering customers access to unlimited priority technical support, the opportunity to upgrade from any previous version to QuarkXPress 8 and the option to receive any upgrades during their maintenance periods, free of charge. The QuarkXPress Maintenance Programme is available to new customers who purchase QuarkXPress 8 or to existing users who upgrade to version 8. To mark the launch of the new programme, Quark has also launched a special offer, until 30th June 2010, which enables anyone that has already purchased QuarkXPress 8 since 1st February 2010 to also purchase QuarkXPress Maintenance.

“The QuarkXPress Maintenance Programme is a great opportunity for creative professionals who are using earlier versions of QuarkXPress to upgrade to QuarkXPress 8 and protect their investment for up to 2 years with free further upgrades. Keeping up with the latest developments and market trends is key for designers and at Quark we understand that this can be a challenge in difficult economic times. We want our customers to get more value than ever from QuarkXPress. When users upgrade to QuarkXPress 8 they can also make the most of the £450+ worth Flash resources that can be download for free from www.quark.com/magic” said Gavin Drake, Quark Marketing Director.

Pricing and availability

Quark Maintenance programme can be purchased from any Quark Authorized Reseller, Quark Store or Quark Direct at the price of £129 for 12 months and £199 for 24 months. Please note that QuarkXPress Maintenance is only available to users with the latest version of QuarkXPress (currently version 8) at purchase or within 90 days of purchase. Users can also upgrade from QuarkXPress 3, 4 and 5 (as well as 6 and 7) providing they take out QuarkXPress Maintenance at the same time as their upgrade purchase. Current QuarkAssurance and ServicePlus agreements will continue until their expiry dates, at which point those customers should contact Quark customer service to discuss migrating to QuarkXPress Maintenance instead.
