licence-types

Network Licence (for PC/Windows ONLY).

Best value for schools: Whole-site licence for a designated number of “concurrent computer users”
Allows all records/data to be stored on a central server allowing easy setting of work / administration / creation of shared resources
Conventional network or good quality thin client system
No CD or USB media needed within the classroom
Version 5 may be virtualised out to use in remote desktop mode or via Citrix, to use on any suitable device, including touchscreen/tablet.

Please note the “Networks” tab on this site, particularly if your school uses network management software. Further information about Network licences

The URL for version 5 Network MSIs and instructions are enclosed with the network licence key, available from here: Version 5 networks no longer need an install disk.

Single User DVD Licence*: Designed for use on non-networked PCs and Apple Macintosh computers with a DVD drive. If you have no DVD drive, this product is not suitable. The program may be installed onto several machines, as the DVD acts as “portable licence”, it must be in the local (internal or external) drive whilst the program runs. The data is stored on each machine separately. Great for:

Families with one or more computers
Home tutors
The licence allows many users access, one at a time.
You may buy more than one disk if you want more than one person at a time to be able to use the program.
Note that many school networks, and all RM CC4 networks, have securities in place that prevent this product from working. Check with the school technician before purchasing.

USB Single User Licence*: The program runs from a USB stick, which also stores the data. Great portability for PC & Mac users:

Netbook/ Mac Air users (who have no CD drive)
Teachers preparing work at home, to take to use on their school interactive whiteboard computer
Children using the USB at home, then taking to a home tutor or teacher to review records and set new work.
Computer users with a very full hard disk
The licence allows many users access, one at a time.
Note this needs a USB2 or 3 port. Some schools prohibit USB use - check with the school technician before purchasing.

Activated Licence (Not available in all countries): The program is installed onto a given number of computers (from a download or via a USB stick) and is then activated on-line. If each licence may be “deactivated” from a computer, e.g. prior to decommissioning, then they may be reactivated onto different machines. Once installed, it essentially works similarly to the CD licence but needs no CD or CD drive
