Different multisite use case / license question

[yantat]

I’ve gone through much of the documentation but wanted to ask about my specific setup.

I am entertaining using anything from the free plugin to the ultimate bundle – undecided as of yet. I suppose it will depend on the answer to this question.

I’m using multisite to create one site on one domain (but a main + 5 multisites to achieve it). The sub-sites live in their own directories and represent various “departments” while the main site is the “corporate/HQ” presence, if you will. It is extremely unlikely to grow beyond this.

In such a scenario, could I use one license? That is to say, are licenses domain based or based on individual sites? I’m hoping the former, fearing the latter. This is a not for profit organization.

P.S. what forum software is this support site running on?

Hi there,

Thanks for taking the time to reach out! License key activations for our products are based on individual sites, and each plugin activation on a sub-site within a multisite network will consume an activation slot regardless of whether the sub-sites share a common domain. If you don’t wish to use a multisite license but still need to activate the plugin in question on six sites total, you might consider looking at license keys at the Agency level. This tier would allow for a total of ten activations per license key, though it’s worth noting that Agency licenses (as well as all other non-Multisite license options) will not include support for network activation, network updates, or other multisite-specific features.

If you should have any other questions about our license tiers and what options might be suitable for your multisite network, you’ll find more information over on our Knowledgebase:

I hope that helps! Thanks again, and let us know if you should have any other questions! 🙂
