NEW: Corporate licenses

Good news for all our customers, who need more than one license within their company: We now offer corporate licenses, which may be used by multiple persons within the company. The license is valid unlimited for all company sites worldwide.

The decision to offer this new license type is a reaction to feedback from our customers. The regular EITO license is non transferable and may only be used by one person. This led to conflicts for some customers with international project teams.

If you are interested in purchasing a corporate license or upgrading your regular license, please contact customer service to receive your personal offer.
