Legal entities, including companies and organizations (both for-profit and non-profit), requiring the software for general commercial use qualify for the Commercial Subscription plans. A legal entity may use the software under Commercial Subscription on any computer, operating system, and by any developer within a legal entity, provided that the total number of concurrent users or servers (depending on product) never exceeds the number of subscriptions purchased by that legal entity.
For complete details, please check our standard Subscription License Agreement for Business and Organizations.
If you, as an individual, are purchasing Subscription using your own funds, then the Personal Subscription plans are right for you.
Personal Subscriptions cannot be purchased by companies in any way or form, nor can a company reimburse an individual for a subscription he/she purchased. However, an individual may use Personal Subscription that he/she privately purchased on any hardware, including company hardware.
For complete details, please check our Subscription License Agreement for Individual Customers.
