Well, I would like to by cafetran, but licens activation is inconvenient. Everytime you have to contact the developer, if you want to change some hardware. And since view years there is no real progress in the software. For example: Memoq has already implemented DeppL´s glossary option, which is avalible since more then 1 year, but cafetran doesn´t has this important option.
[Edited at 2022-09-01 13:53 GMT] Are you aware of the Proz Plus package? Very flexible licensing of CT. Another way to get CafeTran is if you already have the Proz.com plus package, which always works, since all CT needs is your Proz.com login details to register and use the program. 
That sounds more interesting, so the user is independent from cafetran support! And that´s good. Perhaps I will wait for the proz.com sale for the membership.
Thank you Michael!

This is a minor inconvenience. I wouldn't dismiss CafeTran on this alone.
Support tickets for license issues are answered quickly, one day max in my experience (usually a few hours). How often do you replace your hardware anyway? Chances are you will need to buy a new three-year license (aka renew) before you replace a hard drive or PC.
Sometimes, for whatever reason, we might need the new license immediately. Also consider that time difference (7 hours for translators living on this side of the world) may hinder the developer's good will to respond immediately.
Another reason may be that we have more than two computers where CTE is installed at the same time (although not all used at the same time), or want to try different OSs, like in Linux for instance: how many licenses is the developer ready to send us other than the two canonical licenses?
When we buy one full CTE license, we are allowed to used it indefinitely provided than it's not updated, right? But, if after three years we are forced to request a new license because we changed OS or needed to replace the hard disk, we are required to buy CTE anew.
Contributing to the developer finances is perfectly understandable—and I'm still willing to do so although lately it seems (to me) that he has other priorities. And no, please, do not suggest to buy the Proz.com Plus package just to be able to do something that ideally should be incorporated into CTE in the same way many other CAT tools have been doing since long.

The whole licensing infrastructure has already been implemented (via Proz.com), so perhaps the developer can hire his own server and offer the same licensing method to direct clients too?

I don't need Proz.com paid services any more, so why should I have to pay every year for the Plus membership in order to benefit from the freedom CTE could give me directly? (By the way, would that be too difficult to implement?) Certainly I would prefer to pay something more every three years directly to the CTE developer.

Hello Igor,
Any plans to offer direct activation / license management directly?
Cheers,
Hans
