Annual software updates

Reliable and efficiency-driven

Reliable, annual software updates are the basis for any high-quality software maintenance agreement. However, ZEISS customers get more than once-a-year updates. A ZEISS Software Maintenance Agreement includes additional smaller innovation updates throughout the year – not only service patches and security adjustments but other improvements that will enable you to further improve your processes and increase performance and productivity.

Regardless of whether your IT department decides to update to the next software version now or later - with a ZEISS Software Maintenance Agreement you know that you always get latest expert-driven functionalities that help to tackle all kinds of metrology challenges.
 

Preferred Support

Do you have a question about your software? Your first contact is always the Software Support Hotline in your country. For more advanced troubleshooting or developments, our global experts are there to assist.

But support from ZEISS goes further than solving your technical issues. Our experts and application specialists stand ready to advise on any other metrology issues you might have.

For example, they can advise you on how to use your combination of ZEISS software and hardware in the most optimal way to do your measurements. ZEISS support goes beyond application and tips & tricks on metrology software. It also gives expert advice and proactive solutions around the topic of IT-security.
