Specify license information
dotTrace is a commercial software product, protected by copyright under international law. Each copy of the product requires a license.
For new users, dotTrace offers a 30-day free evaluation period. During this period, you can enjoy the full functionality of the product and decide whether it suits your needs. The License Information dialog will show how many days are left on your evaluation.
If you decide to use the product after the evaluation period, you need to obtain a license at dotTrace website and specify the license information in one of the following ways:
All personal and commercial licenses for JerBrains products can be managed through the JetBrains Account, which can be used as a way of specifying licensing information.
All personal and commercial licenses can be specified with a license key.
For corporate clients, dotTrace allows storing and distributing license tickets through JetBrains License Server. The server allows enterprises to establish limited or unlimited number of product licenses and distribute them within the corporate network. The benefit of this approach is that as soon as the user closes the application, their license ticket returns automatically to the server and becomes available for other users.
