Hi Mark,
Precisely. it is commercial use and in most cases "paid for" by the companies who registers it. I am not sure why you are suggesting that you would be "Providing the license for free"
Sorry, I didn't get you at first. I thought it was all about free use.
I wasn't asking specifically for e.g. 40 Free. I was enquiring on whether it was possible to "add" a mix of Paid and Free hosts to my viewer in times of need eg they require support. Example:
Company A & B: 15 each paid: (Total 30 Paid)
Company C: X4 Free (Total 4 Free)
Family A, B,C,D X2 Free each (Total 8 Free)
Above example is made up of three companies & four family individuals of which 30 are paid for and 12 are free.
The program won't allow you to add more than 10 Hosts registered with a free license (be it the same license or different licenses) into the same address book. And if you still keep the free license in the lIcense key storage, you won't be able to add a paid license there until you delete the free one, and vice versa.
I suspect you are saying that I need to be the one that "Purchases" 42 licences on behalf of the above and register under my account which (in my specific case) would not work.
It's stated on our
Licensing page and in the EULA. Also, if you are the only administrator/operator, it just doesn't make sense to pay on the "remote PC" basis in this case, because 1 "per operator" license will be less expensive and will allow you to register not only 42 but an unlimited number of computers. It is what this type of license was designed for in the first place.
I totally understand and needed to check before heading down this path. Its a great product and am sure the Licencing model will work for single companies.
Yes, it's primarily aimed at single companies with less than 10 PCs or home users who occasionally connect to their home PCs or help their friends and family. For a more extensive use a paid license is supposed to replace the free one entirely.
Feel free to ask me if you have additional questions. Thanks!
