CyberSultan 6 Posted April 30, 2008 In the search for a full-working demo of Flexi Starter 8.5 (to try before making any purchasing decisions), I contacted SAi. They contacted one of their resellers, who is sending me out a fullly-functional 30-day demo DVD. I thought I would post the reseller's contact information in case anyone is interested in trying Flexi before purchase. I should hopefully be receiving mine today or tomorrow to test out. Email I received: "I received this request from SAi, we (Reece Supply Co.) are a reseller of the FlexiSIGN software - I Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rodger 527 Posted June 27, 2008 Hi All , I got SignCut with my Copam. Got up to speed with it . USCUTTER started using SignBlazer & I really like it . The measurements & some things are hard for me since i am not computer savy . Is the Flexi starter easier & worth having also ? Plenty of E-bay auctions that don't get the 1rst $119 bid . Thanks , Rodger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BannerJohn 1,324 Posted June 27, 2008 My first cutter came with Flexi Starter. I had never seen a cutter,never used cutting software. I was cutting with FlexiStarter in 20 minutes. Well worth the money. If I, a total greenhorn (then) could use it that easily,anyone can. Buy it...you won't be sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ryan_46307 0 Posted August 7, 2008 Does this software require a trial license number? If not does anyone have an iso image of the dvd to download? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodger 527 Posted August 7, 2008 Reece Supply doesn't have any free Flexi Demo's . Only sell with keys ( Starter = $800 ) . If you find a free trial , share that if you will regards , Rodger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryan_46307 0 Posted August 7, 2008 I emailed them today, but haven't gotten a reply yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodger 527 Posted August 7, 2008 I emailed them today, but haven't gotten a reply yet I e-mailed them June 27 , 08 with no response yet . The guy ( forgot the name ) doesn't wotk for Reece anymore . The sales rep now , Joe ... said they have nothing without a key , so no trial available . He gave me ASi ( Saintl.biz ) as the supplier of Flexi , but they only refer things to their resellers ( hence Reece Supply etc ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CyberSultan 6 Posted August 7, 2008 That's how I got my trial version from Reese. I sent an email to SAi requesting a trial version...and they had Reese Supply arrange it for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodger 527 Posted August 8, 2008 AHH , now i understand . I will try ASi & see if a trial is still available . ( I'm embarrassed & proud to be so cheap $149 thru USCutter ... I should not hesitate . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
