Excelsior’s Java optimiser and native code generator, created in Novosibirsk
Russia. There are currently versions for Windows and Linux in English. Excelsior is
not responsible for the accuracy of anything said on this page. It is Canadian Mind
Product’s sole responsibility.
For information about how JET (Just Enough Time) works, see the JET
technical entry. Here I discuss only how to purchase JET.
You don’t have to be from Canada to purchase via this page or to get the
discount price.
Deciding Which Version You Need
You can download an Enterprise edition evaluation
copy for 30 or 90 day trial
before you purchase later. The evaluation copy is fully functional, but the
executables it produces display a nag screen upon exit and expire when the evaluation
copy used to compile them expires, so you don’t want to distribute files
produced by the evaluation version, except as an experiment.
Which bundle you want depends on the following:
Do you want
Linux,
Windows, or both? There is an additional
25% discount on dual-platform bundles.
Do you want the embedded, standard, professional or enterprise edition? To help you decide, check out this feature matrix. I use the
professional edition myself, so that is the one I am most familiar with and the
one I am talking about when I post about my JET
experiences in the newsgroups.
One year of maintenance (updates) and support (right to ask private questions of the
JET staff) come
bundled with the compiler. You can renew for additional years.
Do you want premium support which gives you top priority,
standard support which gives you one day response
or basic support which gives you unlimited email
support.
How many copies do you want? It would normally not be necessary for all
programmers on a team to have a copy of JET
since you don’t use it until you are ready to deploy. Then one person can
prepare the executable and give it to others for final testing.
The Excelsior JET Runtime is free for use on general purpose desktop
and server computers. You can distribute your desktop and server applications
royalty-free. However, if you are targeting embedded systems, you have to license
from Oracle and purchase Excelsior JET
Embedded Edition.
You can get started developing right away with the evaluation version. You can
download the production version within one business day of your credit card being
approved. Then, if you ordered a CD (Compact Disc),
that too will be mailed to you first class, either from Germany or the US, so it
should arrive in a few days.

Last revised/verified:2009-12-15 The prices and features may have changed
since then. Before purchase, check the prices, features and support options on
Jet’s website. I am attempting here to give you a broad, easy-to-understand
overview rather than the fine details.
means premium priority support. Unless you are a large corporation, you
probably don’t need this. Jet is remarkably bug free. I’ve found I
don’t need any support at all. The only support you might need is help
findinig something in the documenation. Premium gives you priority over other
users.
means standard support. This guarantees you response within a day.
means basic support. Basic support should be sufficient for most people. It
gives you unlimited email support, access to maintenance packs and access to new
product versions.
All versions of Jet come with an optimising compiler than converts
*.class and *.jar files to
*.exe files. The enterprise and pro versions also come
with an optimising JIT (Just In Time) compiler than can optimise *.class and *.jar files on the
end-user’s computer that were not available prior to runtime. With the
standard version, you get a fast JIT
compiler (but without the extensive optimising).
Check prices on the
Excelsior site to order upgrades or mainteance extensions. You can’t order
them directly through the table above. It just gives the prices.
If you buy the Linux/Windows bundled pair, you get a 50% discount.
∇How To Get The 14% Discount
Canadian Mind Products Price
To get the 14% discount,
you have to buy through Canadian Mind Products, namely me, Roedy Green, as a
reseller, rather than directly from Excelsior. Send me an email at
telling me what you want, including multiples, languages, bundles and
combinations not mentioned in the above table, (e.g.
CD
delivery) and what country you are in. Feel free to ask questions. Browse the
Excelsior Jet website to learn
about the many options. If you prefer, we can arrange a time to talk by phone. This
is a fairly expensive investment and I want to make sure you buy exactly the
components you need. I will then give you a precise price quotation in your preferred
currency which includes possibly applicable VAT
and sales taxes and shipping. Then send me the money, usually via PayPal, which indirectly accepts credit cards and electronic
bank transfers. I don’t accept credit cards directly, though there is an
unorthodox way to get around that restriction to bypass the PayPal 4.9% fee. I will
explain the various payment options and their advantages and disadvanges by email or
telephone. I then place a wholesale order have them email the download keys or drop
ship you the products that you ordered. If you snail mail me a cheque, I won’t
place your order until it has cleared. However, you can use the evaluation version
while you are waiting for the registered version to arrive.
In addition, there is a discount if you are a small company or academic institution.

Disadvantages of the 14% Discount
The
disadvantages of buying through Canadian Mind Products, namely me, Roedy Green, are:
Extra handling time, though a sale is possible from beginning to end is about
24 hours.
You have no financial dealings with Excelsior (or Element 5), just with me.
Canadian Mind Products is only a one-person company.
You have to deal with a live, friendly person rather than the non-nonsense,
efficient computer shopping cart that handles direct sales for Excelsior. Many
would consider this an advantage.
Advantages of the 14%
Discount
The advantages of buying through Canadian Mind Products, namely me,
Roedy Green, are:
14% lower price.
I will give you the current bank exchange rate.
You have one extra person to help you through installation teething problems
with a Canadian phone number, familiar with Canadian business problems.
You have me to act as advocate for you with Excelsior.
I can help ensure you buy the correct product and are aware of exactly what you
are getting. You get to deal with a human instead of a computer. You can even talk
to me on the phone.
You can haggle. I am flexible. I am the boss, so I get to make up the
rules.
I have been very impressed with the JET
people. Even without an official support contract, the JET
people have responded quickly and thoroughly to my bug reports and suggestions for
improvements. They have provided better service free than most companies provide for
hefty fees. I wonder what they do for an encore when you do sign up for support!
Optimising compilers are notoriously buggy, yet JET
seems to generate flawless code time after time. I have only once encountered any
wrong code generated and that was on artificial code intended the stress the
JVM (Java Virtual Machine).
