Sadly I don't see a cheaper option, maybe in long term, all i saw that is that On Premise order (confusing for me) for over 2000EUR, idk if it is yearly or not, which is too expensive for our small business at once. Now I have the standard edition, yearly subscription for about 380EUR /yearly. This would be enough for me, if not for poor connection issues. I am looking for alternatives right now, sadly.

We just subscribed and I also think that the screen blanking could be improved a bit. I love the part that you can customize it with messages and colors, but since most of our access clients are kiosk machines in public places and we already have questions like why that mouse is moving everywhere without no one being near the station, it would be nice if the mouse would be hidden behind the blank screen...so they would wait patiently until the maintenance is done.
