One mundu.com account

You register only once on mundu.com, and as a registered user, have full access to almost all features without ever having to log in anywhere else (some limitations apply, but they are of the more obvious kind). Once you are logged in, you dont ever have to supply any kind of information again (except payment information, which we think is not a good idea to store, so we don’t). The site knows who you are, and treats you as the privileged visitor that you are.

One place for support

We are famed for our user support, but being scattered all over the place made it really difficult to find it! No more – hit the Support link in the menu, or in each product area, and you are instantly in the right place to have your problems solved by our competent and friendly support teams.

Single place to download trials and buy licenses and credits

No more complicated download purchase procedures – we have replaced all those with a simple shopping cart. Just drop in what you need, hit the Buy button, and you are done. Need multiple licenses (a very popular request)? You got it. Need to down download new versions of the apps?  Go for it. Need to update your service account with credits? This way please.

Upcoming features

This is really just the beginning. We want to make this site the interactive place we have always dreamt about – we LOVE our users, and love interacting with them. So we are going to throw in more and more features, including some that people have been asking for for years. This includes an upcoming user-interaction forum, videos and tutorials, articles and knowledge bases, and of course lots of user-contributed material.

So stay tuned – this is just the beginning!
