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 features 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 process, mix, edit, and work on audio projects from the computer where it is installed. It does not include official updates, cloud services, or linkage to 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 option from the manufacturer. It includes access to full features according to the contracted plan, official account, online services, updates, 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 for complying with best practices, audits, formal support, and more demanding professional needs.
Note: These licenses are tied to the computer where they are installed and are not transferable.
