What this record means
The record shows that the mark “PS4 PLUS” was registered on the Principal Register on September 27, 2005, but it was cancelled on October 5, 2012 because the registrant, VERTAFORE, INC., failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The cancelled registration covered computer software for risk management, insurance sales processes, proposal generation, insurance forms, surveys, and policy workflow, all under class 009. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the software and insurance‑related services area described above. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only reflects the specific goods listed. The prosecution history shows a normal examination sequence with no descriptiveness refusal or Supplemental Register movement. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history, so there is no visible enforcement signal. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status suggests a lower risk, but the specific software and insurance services listed remain a potential area of concern.
