Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does "Single-User Deployment" mean?

It means deploying a compiled application that runs on a single machine (monoposte). This is perfect for freelancers, small businesses, or internal tools that don't require a server.

Q: Can I deploy unlimited single-user apps with Developer Pro?

Yes! You can build and deploy as many single-user applications as you want, to as many clients as you want. No per-deployment fees, no hidden costs.

Q: What does "One free server deployment" mean?

With Developer Pro or Team License, you get the right to deploy one server application (one 4D Server engine) for your own use or for a single client. This is perfect if you only need one multi-user deployment.

Q: What if I need a second server deployment?

If you need more than one server deployment, you should upgrade to the Business License. It gives you unlimited server deployments for all your projects.

Q: Can I upgrade from Developer Pro to Business License?

Absolutely. You can upgrade at any time. The cost of your Developer Pro license will be credited toward your Business License purchase. Contact us for a custom upgrade quote.

Q: Do I need different licenses for Mac and Windows?

No. Each license covers both platforms.

Q: What if I only need one or two components?

We no longer sell components individually. The ogTools Suite is an integrated ecosystem—each component is designed to work with the others. You get the full power of the suite.

Q: Can I use the Business License for multiple client projects?

Absolutely. The Business License grants you unlimited deployment rights for any number of your own applications, for any number of clients.

Q: What happens to my deployments if I don't renew the Business License?

Existing compiled applications will continue to run as if fully licensed. Only development environments (interpreted hosts) will enter demo mode.

Q: Do you offer discounts for non-profits or educational institutions?

Yes. Please contact us directly to discuss your situation.
