Type of licenses available for IDA
Named licenses
Named licenses are linked to a specific end user and may be used on the user's laptop, and two desktop computers. They are a logical choice for private users but are also available to corporations and universities if and when only one end user uses the software.
Computer licenses
Computer licenses are linked to a specific computer and may be used by different end-users on that computer provided only one user is active at any time. This license type is suitable for corporations because they are not tied to physical persons and allow for easy license reassignment.
Floating licenses
Floating (or Network) licenses can be installed on unlimited number of computers (in one organization) but allow only a limited number of simultaneously running copies.
How it worksTeams licenses
Team licenses can be installed on an unlimited number of computers in one organization. A team of engineers can work online or offline and merge their work once they reach milestones, big or small. The vault server, which comes with team licenses, keeps track of all changes.
How it works
IDA Home comes under a Named license scheme only and can be bought as an annual
subscription. IDA Home replaces IDA Starter, which discontinues at version 7.4. IDA Starter
users with an active support license can convert their license to one of the 5 IDA Home
licenses (x86/x64, ARM/ARM64, MIPS/MIPS64, PowerPC/PPC64, Motorola 68K/Coldfire) or to IDA
Pro. This conversion is free of charge; future support extensions will be at the cost of the
chosen edition. Corporate customer's licenses will be converted automatically to IDA
Pro.
