Flexible Licensing
Single User License (Local): Simplest license, with local access on one specific Windows machine only. However, the license can periodically be transferred to another machine if required.
Concurrent License (Server): A cost-effective way of letting more users have access to the software by sharing licenses on a local server and bringing down the overall cost of purchase considerably.
SaaS Subscription (Cloud): As an alternative option to outright purchase, a license can be taken on subscription (minimum term six months). This allows an individual user to access the software via a Cloud service on a number of platforms. Powerproject Enterprise is ideal where a number of people need to access and update a central plan. It gives organisation-wide visibility over all project-related data so that multiple users can work collaboratively viewing real-time information.
Both single and concurrent user options are available with enterprise access.
With Powerproject Enterprise you can:

project plan at the same time - Collect data from multiple sites quickly and easily and input it
directly into the project plan - Control project costs, income and cash flow across your
