ABViewer Licenses Types Comparison
|
User License
|
Floating License
|
Licenses can be installed on separate computers as well
as on PCs connected into one network.
|
Computers must be connected into a TCP/IP net. Floating
licenses are especially convenient for terminal systems.
|
The license can be installed on a restricted number of
computers.
|
The license can be installed on any number of computers
within one TCP/IP net, the number of ABViewer copies running at the same time
is restricted.
|
Each license can be used by a single person - the
license owner.
|
The license can be used by all the users who have
access to the TCP/IP net and floating licenses.
|
User Licenses
User licenses can be used by a single person - the
license owner – and requires entering registration info on each PC with a copy
of ABViewer installed. The number of purchased licenses depends on the number
of users who will work with the software.
Floating Licenses
Floating licenses allow using ABViewer on several PCs
that are connected to a TCP/IP network. The licenses are managed by the
software CST Floating License Server that is free and is installed in case
floating licenses are purchased.
The number of computers using ABViewer at the same time
is restricted by the number of purchased floating licenses. When the software
is started, it connects to CST Floating License Server and gets a license. The
number of the available licenses at the server is decreased. After the program
is closed, the license is returned to CST Floating License Server and It
becomes available for other computers.
CST Floating License Server supports the following
Microsoft Windows OSs:
- Windows Vista/7/8/10/11
- Windows Server 2008/2008 R2/2012/2012
R2/2016/2019/2022
If computers in your company are connected to a single
TCP/IP net and ABViewer will be used on several computers at different time,
ordering a floating license will allow you saving money.
