Hello, just recently was introduced to Hero Lab by a fellow gamer. Came to your website intending to buy it for Pathfinder. Then I read your base license is limited to 2 machines, with the option to buy 2 more licenses for $10 each.
This stopped me from making the purchase. I would point out that itunes licenses 5 machines, Office 365 licenses 5 machines, Steam/Netflix/Amazon will let you use any machine. I realize your software model may not be capable of monitoring use, limiting you to a certain number of installations, but 2 is far too few. I think the industry standard is 5. If your limit were 5 I would have purchased the software today. I have 4 machines I use throughout the day, and would need 4 licenses. If your model changes to allow 4 or more installations per purchase, then I look forward to using your product. I opted to allow administrator contacts so please notify me if this change is planned. |

Hi there tsath19972. You can learn more on our licensing page, but users can purchase up to four (4) license codes. Each additional secondary license is $10.00 each. So to get license codes for all four of your computers, you would need to purchase 2 additional license codes along with your initial purchase.
If we ever decide to change our licensing model, we would share the change on our website and in our newsletter. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. |

Office as download rather than Office 365 is only 1 license, not 5 (it used to be 3!).

Adobe allows their products to be on two computers, but legally not simultaneously.
Campaign Cartographer doesnt pay attention, but its meant for a 3 computers of non-simultaneous use. Steam of course is login based, meaning it requires internet. Comparign to Nettflix of course makes very little sense, as its a subscription service. I guess my point is there really is no "industry standard". |
