weldOffice® Software Licensing

All software products are downloadable as fully functional programs at no charge.  After setup, all programs will run in demo mode with some features disabled.  Conversion of the programs to full mode requires payment of applicable license fees and a simple on-line registration or a telephone call to technical support. 

Each PC (CPU) requires it's own unique Registration Code in order to run the licensed software in unrestricted full mode.  Registration Codes are provided to all registered users either by email or by telephone upon verification of software license purchase.

Single User License
Single user license allows the licensee to install, register and to use the program in unrestricted full mode on a single machine by only one person at a time. Single user license does not allow two or more persons to use the program simultaneously. Single user programs are shipped "network ready" for use at one network station or for use on a single computer. 

Each PC (CPU) requires it's own unique Registration Code in order to run the licensed software in unrestricted full mode.
Multi User License
Multi-user licenses are available for each software module.   Standard three (3) user network license is usually offered allowing the user(s) to install, register and use the software in unrestricted full mode on a total of three machines (PC's/CPU's).  These can be either standalone or networked.  

Each PC (CPU) requires it's own unique Registration Code in order to run the licensed software in unrestricted full mode.
Corporate License
Enterprise License
Corporate license is available in the United States and Canada only. This type of license includes unlimited number of users and CPU's, where all CPU's must be either owned or leased by the Licensee.  The License extends to a single and unique corporate name only.  Subsidiaries and/or partner companies require a separate license.  A separate non-standard Corporate License is required for each of the other regions (i.e. Europe, Asia/Pacific, South America). A non-standard Corporate License limits the software use to countries pre-approved by C-spec and listed in a separately drafted licensing agreement.

Plant Bundles
Discounted Plant Bundles are available under the Corporate License.  This type of license includes unlimited number of users and CPU's, where all CPU's must be either owned or leased by the Licensee.  The License extends to a single and unique corporate name only, single plant location, plus the corporate headquarters associated with management of the plant.

Each PC (CPU) requires it's own unique Registration Code in order to run the licensed software in unrestricted full mode.  Registration codes will be released only to personnel authorized by the Licensee.  Licensee must provide C-spec with a list of individuals authorized by the Licensee to perform registrations on behalf of the Licensee (e.g. IT department personnel, Corporate Welding Engineer etc…).
Updates
Welding code (ASME or AWS) dependent software modules are revised annually reflecting the changes of the latest welding code edition and/or addenda.   Updates are always made available for download before the mandatory Code date to licensed Annual Maintenance Service (AMS) subscribers only.
Annual Maintenance Service (AMS) 
Purchase of the Annual Maintenance Service (AMS) subscription is required in order to receive code updates for the licensed software module.   The starting AMS expiration date is set as the date of the purchase of the original license.   In some cases, a new non-corporate license purchase includes one year of Annual Maintenance Service (AMS) with the expiration date set one year from the original license purchase date.   AMS subscription must be continuous in order to receive technical support, registration codes, upgrades and critical code updates on time.  C-spec solely at its discretion may allow licensed AMS subscribers in good standing to post-pay their expired AMS, provided the subscription has not expired for more than 2 years.   AMS expiration of more than 2 years, requires purchase of a new license.

Technical support, registration service, software upgrades plus Code updates are included in Annual Maintenance Service (AMS) subscription for a period of twelve (12) months.   AMS subscription includes code depended updates published by ASME and AWS on or prior to the AMS expiration date.

AMS subscriptions may be purchased individually or in multiples in order to further extend the expiration date.  The AMS subscription published prices apply at the time of AMS order placement.   Prices may be periodically revised at C-spec's discretion.
