Trial License Details
An Xcellerator, Validate or Diff Interactive trial license is good for a seven day evaluation period. The seven day period begins when you register/activate your product.
Beta License Details
A Beta license is good for a set period of time determined by the beta program. This is often a period several months long.
Annual License Details
Annual licenses expire after a period of one year from the date of first activation (this used to be the date purchased). Annual licenses are only available from Incisive upon special agreement. All licenses sold by Incisive through this site are Perpetual licenses, which are described below.
Perpetual License Details
A perpetual license is good indefinitely from the date of activation. A customer with a perpetual license is able to upgrade within the same major version of the software for which the license was purchased. For example, if an non trial Xcellerator 1 license is purchased, this will be a perpetual license, and that license will entitle the user to all upgrades of Xcellerator 1 for the first year, but will not entitle the user to upgrade to Xcellerator 2, when it becomes available. Support and Maintenance is available.
Please contact us with any questions about licensing.
