This article provides a detailed comparison of our two main licensing options.

Overview of Licensing Terms

There are two primary types of licenses:

Single Developer or Team License

This license grants the Licensee with the right to use the Product (for example, Broadcast Automation Platform) by either one developer (Single Developer License) or 1-4 developers (Team License). There is no limitation on the number of executable applications, and no limitation on the number of deployed or redistributed copies. So, for the Single Developer license, one developer at a time can work with the SDK, but you can redistribute copies of the application(s) you develop with the SDK unlimited and royalty-free. In case you have a Team license, up to 4 developers can work with the SDK at the same time.

It is important to understand that this license - either in full or partially (such as redistribution right only) - cannot be transferred to a third party. If you are making custom development for a third party, this third party should hold a valid license if it wishes to redistribute the product.

Single Application License

This license grants the Licensee with the right to use the Product to develop one executable application. The number of developers, depployments or redistributed copies is not limited. To understand better what can be considered as one executable application, please read a more detailed faq post here.

For better understanding here's a comparison table.

rrr Single Developer License Team License Single Application License
Number of developers and/or development computers 1 4 Unlimited
Number of test computers Unlimited Unlimited Unlimited
Number of applications Unlimited Unlimited 1
Deployment or redistribution Unlimited Unlimited Unlimited

FAQ

Does the Single Developer License mean that only one person in our company can use the SDK at the same time and that there is no restriction for the applications that are created and redistributed?

Yes, that is correct in case you purchase a Single Developer License. In case you purchase a Team license, up to 4 developers can work with the SDK at the same time. And yes, there is no restriction to the number of applications that you develop with the SDK, and you can redistribute them royalty-free.
