The goal: We need to explain to people that they can buy or sell used software without violating anyone's rights.

The problem: Any pre-used software store provides excellent opportunities for freelancers, independent professionals, and startups to develop their projects. According to statistics, about 90% of all startups are closed in the first year. The reason is simple, it's a lack of funding. Expensive software licenses play an important role in this. Second-hand software solves this problem, allowing you to use the saved funds for development. However, many users try to avoid used software stores because they are afraid of violating laws or the rights of publishers.

The solution: It's crucial to explain to people that buying or selling used software doesn't violate the rights of publishers. The Exhaustion doctrine and CJEU in C-128/11 allow this kind of activity. Therefore, companies should be forced to inform all buyers about this opportunity. Thus, the market itself will put everything in its place. Today you can save a lot by purchasing the necessary software on dedicated sites. For example, ProCADIS works with both the software owners they sell and official suppliers. With this approach, 2D drafting software distributor benefits all parties. Thousands of satisfied customers confirm that the demand for such services will grow steadily in the future.
