Can I use the Total Commander in company?

Post by *bZk »

Hello,
I don't know where to ask for that.
I am from Romania, and I'm working at an German company in Romania, named "PlasTec".
I want to ask if I could use Total Commander within the company?
I have been installed the TC 9.0 beta 15, in 29.09.2016 at 09:50 AM / UTC +2 (Romanian hour).
Is there a problem?

I want an answer quickly.

Of course you can but you have to buy a license for every user in your company.

Maybe it is related to the security policies in your company.

So you buy your own personal license.
Before ask the company IT if usage is allowed.

bZk,
If it is allowed to use personally licensed software in your company, you are able to use your licensed TC copy at home and in office, as long as you are the only user of this TC copy (because TC licenses are sold for usings, not for installations, so same user can use same TC license on different PCs).

A free license for TC there? Because they lack the necessary amount for the purchase of a license. Just want to use TC.

No, there is no free license there.
This is a heavily developed and supported product which costs some money.
But compared to 'value in use' and with free updates since years, this is a small purchase.
I know this depends from country to country, but there are also freeware alternatives to TC out there.
I, for example, use alternatives to the original Ph0t0Sh0p too.

To summarise this:
If you have a personal TC license, you have a user license.
This means, you can use TC with this license wherever you want:
At home, at a friends PC, at work ... as far you are the only one who uses it there.
