Differences between alternative license and original license

This information is included so that the customer clearly understands what type of license they are acquiring and what functions they can expect based on the chosen option.

Alternative license: is a non-original license, with a one-time payment and no monthly or annual subscriptions. It allows functional use of the program to create, edit, save, and work on projects from the computer where it is installed. It does not include official updates, artificial intelligence functions, cloud services, or linkage with personal accounts of the manufacturer. Linking accounts, manually updating, or modifying the program may affect activation and require additional technical assistance at a cost.

Original license: is the official manufacturer's option. It includes access to full functions according to the contracted plan, an official account, online services, updates, AI functions when available, and official support. Its cost is usually higher and it normally operates under monthly or annual plans with an expiration date.

For business, corporate, governmental, or institutional use, Luctecno recommends original licenses, as they are the appropriate option to comply with best practices, audits, formal support, and more demanding professional needs.

Note: These licenses are linked to the computer where they are installed and are not transferable.
