Update Regarding COVID-19: Leveraging Remote Access for Customer Assistance
Boris FX Offers Free 60-Day "At Home" Licenses for Major Products
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Boris FX, a leading developer of visual effects, motion graphics, and tracking solutions, has announced that they are offering free 60-day "at home" licenses for their flagship products—Sapphire, Continuum, Mocha Pro, and Silhouette.
This initiative aims to support artists working remotely by providing full-featured versions of these tools for 60 days, free of charge. The free licenses are designed as temporary extensions on top of existing licenses or for new users needing remote access.
The offer is available to all qualifying Boris FX customers, allowing VFX, post-production, and motion graphics professionals to maintain productivity amid pandemic restrictions. This includes those who are working from home and need to replace floating licenses that are locked in the office.
Boris FX's customer service operations, including plug-in support and license assistance, are available through the usual channels (phone, forums, email, chat). Customers are encouraged to read the FAQ for more details about the "at home" licenses.
To facilitate the transition to remote work, all Boris FX staff have been working remotely since last week. The team is taking necessary precautions to protect themselves, their families, and the communities where they live and work during the pandemic.
The Boris FX Application Manager, a free download, is useful for moving an installed license to a new workstation. It helps customers easily deactivate and reactivate node-locked licenses.
Boris Yamnitsky, CEO/Founder of Boris FX, expressed empathy towards the disruption of businesses due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He emphasized the importance of the broadcast and post-production community helping each other during this challenging time.
Quotes, new license purchases, upgrades, and renewals are all being processed as usual. Boris FX has committed to continuing service and support for the worldwide broadcast and post-production community during the pandemic.
For more information about the Boris FX Application Manager, visit the Boris FX website. If you require official offer details such as activation procedures, eligibility, or extensions beyond 60 days, those would typically be found on Boris FX’s website or press releases issued around March-April 2020.
