Types of Licenses
Standalone
A Standalone license provides one computer with one license to run one SWS program for a limited time. Standalone licenses are “node-locked” meaning that they are only valid for the computer from which the license is requested.
Network
A Network license provides your organization with the flexibility to manage and administer multiple time-limited licenses from a central license server in a network environment (LAN). Using the License Manager tool, workstations on the network equipped with SWS software can access and use the available licenses on the license server.
