User licenses operate for 12 months from the time of purchase after which time a license renewal will be required. Licenses are either single user, 10 user and enterprise (unlimited users). Single user and 10 user licenses require the company name and name of each user to be provided at the time of purchase and will tailor your software to include these details. If you purchase a 10 user license but as yet have not assigned users at this time, you can return to this site and add additional users, up to your limit of 10, at a later time.
