What is a Perpetual Software License?

A perpetual software license model is a permanent form of licensing in which the software application is sold for a one-time upfront fee, and entitles the owner to use the application forever, without expiration. This usually results in higher costs upfront, which is why many companies are now shifting to more subscription-based plans.
