Hello! I already have many books in Logos, but I'm using the free version, so I would like to know what are the adventages of the bronze versión. It seems to me that I already have many features.

    Hide books you own.  All what is left is what you would get. Do this for books. Then do it for features. In short, you get a LOT!

    Hi Josué - and welcome to the forums

    If you go to https://www.logos.com/compare/featuresets/Logos%20Feature%20Sets and click the button that says Hide features I own (it's just above the list of books etc you should see what extra books / features you would get with Bronze

    If you're currently using the free version, have you looked at the Legacy Libraries? I currently only buy "books" through Logos. I've never bought a package as such. I find the Legacy Libraries a great way to add books cheaply.

    Search through legacy libraries 5, 6, 7, 8 & 9 in differing traditions.

    I don't think that is entirely correct. That page would not reflect the books and features that he already has a temporary license for through the Logos free edition. As he doesn't own them, he cannot hide them.

    I don't think there is any way to compare the differences between the free edition (as you don't get permanent licenses) and another base package.

    Once you're signed into your account, the Logos site is able to differentiate what you own (as in permanent license) or don't (and that includes books in your library with a temporary license). Once he goes on a package page and hides resources he owns, the remaining books and features will (barring any website glitches, bugs etc) be a true representation of the books and features he will get if he purchases that package.

    As per the images below, I have A Practical Commentary on Holy Scripture in my library but with a temporary license (you can see I have the option to buy it). It's included in Verbum Starter, and it remains in the list of books when I hide my owned resources. That is because, though I have it in my library, I do not own it. If I buy Verbum Starter, my license for that resource will go from temporary to permanent.

    the adventages of the bronze versión.

    I don't know if you're financially well-endowed.  But if not (Bronze is quite a jump from free), you might want to investigate the levels below Bronze that are a bit more affordable.  

    But more importantly, you get a better feel for what's important to you, in your Bible study.

    Thank you for your answers. I purchased bronze and I'll be exploring it. :)
