Floating license?
What is exactly a Floating license? Does it mean all our employees can get/use the software? Is there a limitation of software usage? Or a number of people maximum on the software at the same time? ...
Forum Discussion
A floating license allows multiple users access to a product, but each license can be used by one user at a time.
You can think of floating licenses like a book at a library. Different people can check out access to the book, but only one person can have the book at a time. While someone has the book nobody else can access it. Once the book is returned a different person can access the book.
Floating accounts are also used for accessing ReadyAPI in a CI/CD pipeline or when using ReadyAPI products in a containerized environments such as Docker.
Hi, SarahS
Would you mind to explain one more thing regarding floating license?
Specifically about "Allowed concurrent users" (from this article https://support.smartbear.com/licensing/docs/activate-and-use/floating.html)
Does it mean that one floating license can allow several users work with a product at the same time?
Thanks!
