(Multi-Seat Subscriptions) Why Can't I Add All Products to the Same Subscription

At manage.techsmith.com, you can view and manage your Direct orders (multi-seat subscriptions purchased via the sales team) for these cloud products:

video review icon Video Review assets for snagit icon TechSmith Assets for Snagit
knowmia pro icon TechSmith Knowmia Pro assets for camtasia icon TechSmith Assets for Camtasia
audiate icon TechSmith Audiate logo_screencast.png Screencast Pro

You can purchase your first multi-seat subscription via our Sales team.

After this, when you purchase additional products or seats, you may need to do one of the following:

  • Add the products or seats to an existing subscription.
  • Contact Sales to add the product to a new subscription under the same account.
  • Contact Sales to add the product to a new subscription under a different account.

If you have multiple subscriptions under one account, you can view them in manage.techsmith.com > Direct orders > Subscriptions.

in direct orders, on the subscription page, use the subscription selector to view all the subscriptions that you own

This article describes the reasons why you may need several multi-seat subscriptions, or even several accounts.

Example

You purchased a multi-seat Assets for Snagit subscription on a yearly basis, and you are responsible for managing the subscription (purchases, cancelations, renewals, and others).

You would now like to purchase a multi-seat Video Review subscription and choose another person to manage it.

Description

Do not add Video Review to your subscription that contains Assets for Snagit. Instead, contact Sales to create another subscription, and then transfer this subscription to a new owner.

If you need to choose someone else to manage seats, instead of transferring the subscription to a new owner, you can add a seat manager. See (Multi-Seat Subscriptions) Add or Remove a Seat Manager.

Example

You purchased a multi-seat Audiate subscription on a monthly basis, and would now like to purchase a multi-seat Knowmia Pro subscription.

Description
