Licensing and Subscription

Learn how to use Wordize subscriptions and how to get a Trial or Purchased License.

Wordize offers flexible licensing options for its products to suit different development needs. Whether you are evaluating the product, testing its capabilities, or purchasing a full license, we provide clear and suitable options. Below are the available licensing types and details on how they work.

License Types

Free Trial License (30 Days)

The Free Trial License provides full access to all features of the selected Wordize product for 30 days. This allows developers to test the software with no restrictions before making a purchase.

Key features and limitations:

  1. Includes functionality without limitations.
  2. Expires automatically after 30 days.
  3. No renewal or extension available.

Purchased License (1, 2, 3 or 4 Years)

A Purchased License provides full functionality for a selected Wordize product with different duration options. Each license is valid for a single Wordize product and must be purchased separately.

Key features and limitations:

  1. Available for 1, 2, 3 or 4 years.
  2. Grants complete access to all product features.
  3. Does not renew upon expiration – a new license file must be purchased.
  4. Requires a separate license for each Wordize product used.

Suit License (Bundle Discount)

For developers who need multiple Wordize products, the Suit License offers a bundled package with a discount. This includes licenses for all Wordize products at a reduced cost.

Key features and limitations:

  1. One purchase grants access to all Wordize products.
  2. Includes the same duration options as individual licenses (1, 2, 3 or 4 years).
  3. Available at a discounted rate compared to purchasing each license separately.

Evaluation Access

The Evaluation Access is an alternative for developers who need to explore Wordize products without a time limit but with certain restrictions. The Evaluation Access simply becomes licensed when you add a few lines of code to apply the license.

Key features and limitations:

  1. No expiration date.
  2. Limited by the number of paragraphs of the input document.
  3. Applies a watermark to the output documents.
  4. Suitable for non-commercial use and testing purposes.

How to Apply a Product License

To activate your purchased Wordize product, follow one of the options below.

  1. Use a license file:
  • Obtain the license file (.lic) after purchase.
  • Load and apply the license in your application:
Wordize.Settings.SetLicense("Wordize.Net.lic");
  1. Use a stream:
  • Load the license from a stream:
Wordize.Settings.SetLicense(MemoryStream(File.ReadAllBytes("Wordize.Net.lic")));
  1. Use an embedded resource:
  • Add the license file as an embedded resource into your project.
  • In your code, invoke SetLicense that passes only the short name of the resource file.

Each product requires its own license. Ensure all required licenses are applied before usage.

Using Licenses for Multiple Wordize Products

Each Wordize product has its own separate license and expiration date.

When purchasing multiple products, the following should be considered:

  1. Each product requires an individual license, which means licenses may have different expiration dates.
  2. You can activate multiple licenses at the same time, allowing you to use different Wordize products simultaneously.
  3. If using multiple products together, ensure that all required licenses remain active to avoid disruptions when working on complex tasks.

The following code example shows how to activate multiple licenses from files – for example, for the Wordize Core for .NET and Wordize Web for .NET modules:

Wordize.Settings.SetLicense("Wordize.Net.lic"); Wordize.Settings.SetLicense("Wordize.Web.Net.lic");
