Purchase of TSG

TSG is marketed and distributed under licence by AusSpec International, and can be purchased by contacting TSG Enquiries for a quote.  

TSG Suite products are competitively priced on a sliding scale from low cost simple functionality to higher cost advanced functionality.  For example, TSG Viewer is very low cost, TSG Pro is the standard price it has always been, TSG Lite is approximately half the price of TSG Pro while TSG Core is double the price but with greatly enhanced functionality.  TSG Suite programs can be downloaded from the Download page for evaluation. If you have any questions, Ausspec would be happy to discuss which TSG product is best suited to your particular needs.

TSG Purchase options include, for example:

•     Outright purchases of single or multiple licences
•     30 day fully functional trial licences
•     Volume and corporate discounts (>3 licences)
•     Educational discounts
•     Upgrades from earlier versions
•     TSG Core with multiple TSG Viewer licences

Please contact TSG Enquiries for details on any of these options.  If you already have a version of TSG and wish to upgrade to a higher level TSG, then contact us to discuss the options and costs.

Note that, as part of the TSG purchase, AusSpec also provides free TSG training on all TSG functions on request.

You can be sure that once you have tried it, you will wonder how you ever did without it!

Node Locking vs. Dongles

TSG comes with the option of either Node locking or a dongle for copy protection. 

Node locking means that TSG will be locked to the your selected computer and cannot be moved between computers. The registration details are specific to the computer that TSG has been installed on. Note that the TSG Viewer is only available in Node lock format.

A Dongle is a piece of hardware that plugs into a USB port on your computer. When locked on a dongle, TSG will not run on a computer unless the dongle is attached. This means that a single TSG license can be installed on more than one computer, but can only be run on one of them at a time. Dongles are useful for those users who need to use TSG on their office computer but also need to have it on a laptop when they are at home or in the field. There is an additional cost for dongles.
