Modelio floating licenses

Optimize Modelio license allocation through the floating license system


Share licenses between users

The floating license system enables you to share licenses between different users. For example, a 5 member team can use just 3 floating licenses, provided that a maximum of 3 people use Modelio at the same time.

The Modelio module extension mechanism adds even more flexibility to the floating licensing system: you can buy any number of module licenses (typically less than the number of core Modelio Modeler licenses you buy) and distribute them according to their dedicated use. As an example, one team member can use Modelio with a Document Publisher license, while another uses the Java Designer license. The license usage count for this configuration is 2 Modelio Modeler licenses, 1 Java Designer license and 1 Document Publisher license.

Tip: Licenses for the Teamwork Manager module are considered core licenses. Buy the same number of Teamwork Manager licences as Modelio Modeler licenses.

Use Modelio on any workstation with the same licenses

The floating license system is based on a license server. The license server must be network accessible from the active Modelio workstation. Any network-connected workstation can then be used to run Modelio, provided that there are remaining floating licenses at the time of use.


A concrete example

A 10 member team is made up of 2 analysts, 1 architect and 7 Java programmers. The maximum number of simultaneous usages is 6 Modelio Modeler, 2 Document Publisher, and 4 Java Designer.

The floating price is:
6 x Modelio Modeler@€450 + 6 x Teamwork Manager@€450
+ 2 x Document Publisher@€450 + 4 x Java Designer@€550
= €8500.

The node-locked licence price for this configuration would be:
(€300+€300+€300+€365)x10 = €12650
