Different pricing policy for logos similar to Evernote

First of all, I want to say that Logos is great software. However, I think that the company's pricing policy is not wise enough. I would suggest to use a monthly subscription pricing policy instead version+package one. I think the evernote's approach to pricing policy is much better suitable to the logos software.

In many instances, I found myself using logos for searching resources and reading, but when time comes to make a note, I prefer to use evernote. Why? Because, I am afraid that at some point my version of logos software will not be supported by the company anymore, so all my notes and clippings will not sync anymore with my other devices. It means all my previous bible studying will be perished. It is not the case with Everenote, since its company constantly releases updates. I feel much safer to use it, that is why I am OK to pay $4-5 a month for it.

What do you think?

    Should Faithlife no longer support notes i.e. if Faithlife goes under and no company chooses to buy it, I can export my notes into standard formats and import them into software that remains available.

    Is this what you think logos should be doing?

    Yes, Kelvin it is the way to go. Yet, it would be still nice to have offline version of logos. Sometimes, I am doing my preparations while traveling with no internet connection.

    The price for logoscloud is still tool high. Why not to make it costs 4-5 dollars a month?

    Is there option to convert from desktop to cloud logos at the discounted rate?

    The basic plan overly simplified is:

    • owned resources + desktop + optional cloud ==> Logos Now
    • rented resources + optional desktop + cloud ==> Logos Cloud
