Licensing

Globalyzer can be licensed in a hosted account configuration, where Lingoport hosts the Globalyzer server, or with an Enterprise server hosted within your company’s network. Globalyzer is licensed based on organizational use, rather than per user, as internationalization is a team development activity and ongoing process. Please contact sales@lingoport.com for more information.

There are optional paths in terms of license terms and conditions. Site-wide server licenses can be licensed based on department or enterprise, but we probably need to talk about your intended use.

The only differences between using the demo version and a fully licensed account is that in demo mode, Globalyzer limits the amount of results it will report on your source code to approximately the first hundred issues, and it doesn’t show you details on default locale-sensitive methods (functions/classes) when you first create your rule set.
