To be more democratic to our customers we have changed our License Policy.
Develop without compromises!

To be more democratic to our customers we have changed our License Policy. Now you need to purchase the license only for software developers who works with Flexible TreeView.
This means that only developers on your project who either directly or indirectly work with FlexibleTreeView in design-time, or write code to work either directly or indirectly with FlexibleTreeView in run-time, require their own developer licenses. So if your developers work on other parts of your project where FlexibleTreeView is not being used, you do not need licenses for them.
Please visit our FAQ page for details.
