What is included in license coverage?
What do developers, locations, and projects mean?
- License Coverage: Coverage is based on the number of developers, developer locations by city, and projects. Learn more.
- Developers: The number of Individuals or Development Machines working on all projects using an Iron Product.
- Locations: Developer locations, counted by city. (Add Royalty-free Redistribution to unlock Unlimited Locations). Watch the video guide to locations.
- Projects: The total historical count of Projects produced using a single Iron Product license key. Redistributable projects require additional SaaS and OEM coverage.
When is redistribution coverage required?
- OEM Coverage: This license permits the distribution of end-user software that includes our products. It is suitable if you're embedding our software in applications without exposing our functionalities via public APIs to other developers.
- SDK Coverage: If your product features a public API that exposes our functionalities to other developers, you must use an SDK license. This is necessary if your existing end-user software under an OEM license evolves to include public APIs. Note that creating or adding to code libraries for resale using our products is strictly prohibited under the SDK License.
- No Coverage Required: If Iron Software products are used internally within your organization without redistribution or public API exposure, no additional license is required.
