Licensing
SQLMetaTool is licensed by the number of target servers whose databases you wish
to scan. Each target server can have an unlimited number of SQL Server instances
on it and each instance can have an unlimited number of databases. You can also
have an unlimited number of clients viewing the central SQLMetaTool database. In
other words
the only aspect that is controlled by licensing is the number of target servers
that you are able to scan.
You can purchase a license for 1, 3 or 6 target servers. If you have more
servers than this please contact us to discuss your requirements.
We suggest that you first download SQLMetaTool and
try it out. Prior to being licensed by a valid activation code there are a few
restrictions which are listed on the Download page. If you wish to continue using SQLMetaTool after you have finished
your evaluation then please visit the Purchase page, fill in the relevant details and
purchase an Activation Code. This Activation Code can then be entered into
SQLMetaTool to unlock the remaining features by generating a License Code which is
linked to the central SQLMetaTool database/server.
In order to Activate your software an Internet connection is required (this does
not have to be on the server, you can do this from a copy of SQLMetaTool running
on any PC). If this is a problem please contact us and we can work the
activation by email.
For further details on buying SQLMetaTool please see the Purchase FAQ page.
