Offer per solution licencing

Related to case #556

Existing licensing is for per developer with unlimited solutions. This works for companies with a small number developers and lots of projects. However, it doesn't work so well for companies with a large number of developers and few projects.

Name Developers Solutions Years Price
Per Developer 1 unlimited 1 79
Per Developer 1 unlimited 5 275
Per Solution unlimited 1 1 ?
Per Solution unlimited 1 5 ?

Offering a per solution licensing model will solve the problem for companies with a large number of developers and few projects.

Is there now pricing per solution now? My company also has a large number of developers, and few projects.

Hi @mariahsiung-procu , Sorry no. I've not implemented a licence that would work for a solution yet. It would work as anyone can run a T4 template, but the generator is currently set to look into the Documents folder for the licence. I would need to change it to look into the projects folder for one instead. Coding wise, its straight forward. I need to work out what is a reasonable price for a per solution licence. I was thinking it could be based on team size for a solution. I will give it more thought.

Thanks for your quick response! My company is currently trying to use the generator for a large project. When do you think you'll have a solution? Based on the dates on this thread, it looks as though this has been an issue for a while, so I'm wondering what are your other users doing? Our project is just ramping up, so we're looking to get licensing squared away asap.
