License

Flexibe per-user pricing

Our flexible multi-user pricing model makes sure you can afford to purchase an HTMLButcher license that covers everybody in your office, department or company. You will often save money, but never pay more compared with a typical per-CPU licensing model.

Single User Licenses

The flexibility starts with the single user license, which is exactly that. If you want to install and run HTMLButcher on a single computer only, a single user license is all you need, regardless of how many people use that computer. If you are the only person using HTMLButcher, a single user license allows you to install HTMLButcher on all computers you use. You only need a multi-user license if you want to run HTMLButcher on multiple computers, used by multiple people.

People or Computers, Whichever Is Less

To determine the size of the license you need, simply count the number of computers HTMLButcher will run on, and the number of people that will be using HTMLButcher. The size you need is the lesser of those two numbers.

E.g. if five people in an office will be using HTMLButcher, and they each have a desktop and a laptop (i.e. ten computers), a five-user license allows those five people to use HTMLButcher on their ten computers. Since there are only five people, only five instances of HTMLButcher could theoretically be in use at any time.

On the other hand, if nine people share an office, but the office has only four computers used by all nine people, a four-user license is sufficient. Since there are only four computers, only four instances of HTMLButcher could theoretically be in use at any time.

Either way, you save money since you're not paying for licenses that won't be used, as you would with a typical per-CPU licensing model. Still, everybody can use HTMLButcher whenever they need it and stay productive, unlike with concurrent user licensing where people have to queue up and wait when more people want to use the software than the license permits.

Valid on all platforms

HTMLButcher is currently available in Windows and Linux versions, and a MacOSX version is being evaluated. The license you buy, will work on any of the available platforms, without the need to buy a different one.

Updates policy

The license is valid for all updates of the same HTMLButcher major version, that is, if you buy a license for HTMLButcher 1.0.1, your license will be valid for all releases which begins with 1.xx.
