How does the license work ?
To obtain a CrossManager license, please contact us directly to order your license or request a trial version.
- Each input or output format requires its own license to operate.
So you can tailor your configuration to your needs, and buy only the formats you need.
- We provide three types of licenses :
- Fixed licenses, which operate on a single workstation.
- Floating licenses, installed on a license server, so you can use CrossManager on different workstations. You can choose the number of “tokens”, which defines the number of users who can use the software simultaneously.
-Remote licenses, installed on a single workstation, but which can be used for remote access from another workstation.
