· In many cases, the licensed developer is also interested in a new market for the sale of their software products, primarily their outdated versions. This means that the developer company can no longer receive money from the licensed seller, but opens up new sources of income from the sale of intellectual products in the secondary second-hand market.
· The income of the licensed developer is formed from technical support, which must be requested by every customer, a new user of a used product.
· Thus, ProCADIS supports the conclusion of a tripartite agreement between the trading platform, the provider, and the licensed developer, which eliminates disputes and conflicts, and the end user will be able to work freely with the software he needs.

· Sometimes providers initially agree on mutually beneficial terms of cooperation with technical support companies and offer the consumer a complex product that has great value and can cost more.
