aequos | Modern Data Visualizer - Frequently asked questions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

On the first page, you said the 'Data Visualizer' solution is an upgrade from the open source PnP 'Modern Search solution', so basically, you simply reused the same code but now make people pay for it?"

Well, not really. We started the code from scratch with a completely new design approach. Of course we reuse pattern from the open source solution but the majority of the codebase is totally new (and much improved from the open-source version). Feel free to try it by yourself using a trial license to see the differences.
I don't want a subscription based model. Can I just buy a 'standalone' version and can keep the solution forever?

Of course! Along the subscription based model, we provide a standalone option with a license key. All you need is to setup a tenant property in your Office 365 tenant to get it work. It is slightly more expensive than the subscription based model, but it all depends how long you plan to use this solution. Also, you will get the updates as well as the subscription model. For more information on how to setup your standalone license, refer to the documentation.
How can I cancel my subscription?

You can cancel your subscription at anytime using the link provided in your order email or by using this link to get you subscription details. You license will remain active until the end of the subscription period.
I subscribed to a trial and I want to switch to a standalone license. What happen to my subscription? Will I be charged twice?

You can purchase a standalone license during the trial subscription period using the same tenant ID. In this case, we will automatically cancel you trial subscription and you won't be charged at the end of the period. Simply as that.
I lost my order email, can you send me a copy?"

It happens :( You can recover your order using this link and giving the email you used to make that order(s).
