One of the main reasons we haven't upgraded is that we paid one time and don't want to start paying periodically.

This sounds rather ominous, however, since it seems they could be obligating me to upgrade to a future version that they release for perpetual users without regard to whether the cost is reasonable or not. 'In the event that TeamViewer elects to provide a Major Release Version of the Software, TeamViewer may require the Customers of Perpetual licenses to pay an additional fee for use of such new Major Release Version.' So far they haven't offered upgrades to perpetual licenses since they switched to a subscription model or I would have upgraded. I'll be working through it today as I am a perpetual license holder for version 12. Mitwirkungsobliegenheit, anyone?) though not as bad as some, and there is no indication of what has changed from the previous version. This thing is massive, typically dense legalese (including a few fun German words sprinkled around for good measure.
