1. Effective 10/1/2011 (yes 2011, 1 year from now)PC Miler is changing their fees to a transaction charge instead of a flat rate.
2. We now offer an integration with Rand McNally
Now the details:
PCmiler is forcing us into switching to a transaction based system. I negotiated a big lead time - a year, and also made a deal with Rand for a flat rate pricing to replace it.
We had a really good deal with PCMiler, and I think the new deal is still good, just not as good. I think its easily worth a penny or so to automatically have a mileage calculated.
The big advantage of the new PCmiler deal is that you will be able to specify what version of PCmiler to use for which of your clients. You could have one customer with PCmiler 17 pricing, and another with PCmiler 21- or whatever.
The new PCmiler mileage pricing will be somewhere around 1.25-1.5 cents per query. For many of our clients, it will come out about the same as flat rate pricing or less.
For Rand, the pricing will be 450 a year, for unlimited query's. You can just go with Rand, just do PCmiler, or do both.
