A DataFlex Studio licence is required for each individual developer that uses the software.
A Commercial Studio licence includes…
- A 3-User DataFlex Windows Client with Connectivity Kits for internal development, testing and internal production use with applications within the Studio user’s company. Client Engines for deployment to third parties must be purchased separately.
