Floating License
Floating licenses are suitable for companies who wish to automate the management of Enterprise Architect registration keys, because they can be administered in a single, centralized repository. Sparx Systems Keystore Service provides the repository and administrative software to manage floating licenses.

The floating licenses service also supports off-site usage by allocating a key for a fixed period defined by an administrator.

You will need a floating license for each concurrent user.
For example if you have a team of 10 users but only require 5 users to use Enterprise Architect at any one time then you would need to purchase 5 Floating Licenses.

Subscription & Support
When you purchase Enterprise Architect you receive 12 months registered user email support and access to new versions and builds of Enterprise Architect. After this period has expired, you have the option to renew your subscription by purchasing a subscription renewal. A subscription renewal provides access to priority email support and free updates for an additional year.

Academic Site Licenses - For Institutions.
Enterprise Architect Academic Edition provides educational institutions with:

  • All the functionality of Sparx Systems' premier Enterprise Architect Ultimate Edition.
  • Site license options for fixed quantity or unlimited academic users.
  • The flexibility to use Enterprise Architect on-site or remotely for 'virtual classroom' scenarios.
  • Floating license options to centrally manage and automate distribution of license keys.

Prior to purchase, you will need to provide proof of your academic status, such as a scanned copy of your student/staff ID. In case photo ID is not available, a copy of your current student enrolment record is required. If you are a lecturer or teacher, a reference to your institution's website that lists you and your role suffices as alternative documentation.
