Subject: Window-Eyes to JAWS Migration

 

Thank you for being a valued member of the GW Micro and Window-Eyes family.
We regret to announce that sales of Window-Eyes have ended in the United
States and Canada. Users outside of the United States and Canada should
contact their local distributor for options. We are committed to our
customers and will honor existing product purchases and software maintenance
agreements, and we will continue to provide technical support to end users
that have purchased Window-Eyes or a support package.  

 

All users who are currently using Window-Eyes can continue to use the
software indefinitely; however, as the WindowsR operating system and/or
applications change over time, Window-Eyes may not function adequately for
your needs.

 

We understand how important a screen reader is to you and are offering JAWSR
for Windows 18 as a replacement.  We are committed to providing a smooth
transition and will honor existing Window-Eyes product purchases and
software maintenance agreements (SMA), as follows. 

.         End users that paid for and are current with Window-Eyes 9.x will
be converted to JAWS 18 at no charge.

.         If you are using an earlier version of Window-Eyes, you can
purchase an upgrade to JAWS 18. 

.         If you are using the free version of Window-Eyes you can continue
to use it. While there is not an upgrade path from the free version, if you
are interested in purchasing JAWS, please contact our sales team at
800-444-4443. 

.         Existing Window-Eyes SMAs will be rolled into the JAWS SMA program
for end users that migrate to JAWS.

Learn more about the migration options and pricing by visiting
http://www.gwmicro.com/window-eyes/migrate.

 

To make this process as easy as possible, we ask you to complete a simple
web form that will go directly to our sales team, who will then contact you
with an authorization code for JAWS 18, or request additional information if
necessary.

 

Requests for upgrades must be submitted at
http://www.gwmicro.com/window-eyes/migrateform or by phone at 800-444-4443
by July 31, 2017. 

 

Note, the free Window-Eyes Offer for Users of Microsoft Office version is
not part of the conversion program.

 

If you have any questions please call us at 800-444-4443 or email us at
orders at vfogroup.com.
