Effective Support
Our customers get the direct support from Unigine development team. Technical support (both in English and Russian) is provided via e-mail and by phone.
A lot of new Unigine features were initially suggested by our customers. We do value their feedback, since our aim is to make their projects successful.
Instant Improvement
Unigine development moves forward very quickly. Our customers get SDK updates each two weeks. They can be tracked in our development log.
See also development roadmap for 2009.
Licensing
Two versions of Unigine are available for licensing: binary and full source ones. Please refer tothe licensing page for prices and further instructions on ordering.
We would love to bring the power of Unigine technologies to your project.
