How does screen-scraper licensing work?
There are three editions of screen-scraper: basic, professional and enterprise. The basic edition is completely free. It costs nothing and never will. The professional and enterprise editions carry a licensing cost.
Our screen-scraper professional and enterprise editions are licensed on a per machine basis. A single instance of screen-scraper can scrape as many sites as the underlying hardware allows (i.e., we don't charge per site scraped).
For the enterprise edition, we do allow a single license to be used for two machines under certain circumstances. If you have one machine you use for development, and another used for production/deployment, it is acceptable to use the same license for both machines.
We offer deep discounts to students and academic institutions; as well as, tiered discounts for volume purchases and resellers. Please contact us directly for more information.
