License activation only for one PC?

Post by Carmen Garcia »

Hello everybody:

I have a doubt. When I purchase a FlowCode license, Can I use this for 1 PC only?


Thanks in advanced.
Regards

Hi

As I understand it, you can put it on all the PCs you own for a private / home user (within reason :) ).Business / Colleges etc need a site licence.
But you can only have it running on one machine at a time.
I.e. I have it on both the desktop and laptop but If its open on the laptop I cannot use it on the desktop at the same time.

Edit
Ive moved this to the Flowcode 5 - Free edition Section as it more suitable for the question
1 in 10 people understand binary, the other one doesn't !

I don't think this is implemented in FC yet. But would be good to have that feature to protect site licensing.

As it stands if the two computers are on the same network you cant use one Flowcode licence on them at the same time, but we do allow users to have one on a work computer, one on a laptop or home computer, as they should in theory not be used at the same time.

For institutions and multi-user licences it works the same, except the maximum number of concurrent users is the type of licence (10 or 50) on the same network.
