š How Roof Wizard licensing works
Online (web) licensing
Roof Wizard uses web licensing as standard. That means users with internet access can use the software from any location, up to the number of licenses available to your organisation.
š„ļø Can it be used on multiple computers?
Yes ā but āone licenseā means āone at a timeā
You can run Roof Wizard on different computers (e.g., office PC + laptop), but the key rule is concurrent usage:
If your organisation has 1 license, you can have 1 active user/session at a time.
If your organisation has multiple licenses, you can have that many users working at the same time.
š“ Need to work without reliable internet?
License check-out (offline use)
Roof Wizard includes a tool to check a license out from the license server, so you donāt need to be continuously connected. A checked-out license is effectively locked to that PC until itās returned.
š What if I just need to open or print a job?
Read-only mode
If your license is already in use by another user, Roof Wizard can be run in Read Only mode. Which allows you to open, check, and print an existing job.
šļø File storage and shared setup
Your files stay where you store them (local by default)
Roof Wizard installs on each computer, and by default your working setup files live in the User folder (commonly C:\AppliCad\Roof Wizard\User).
You can put your setup on a shared/cloud drive
Your āUser setupā (e.g., roof models, material definitions, allowances, reports/templates) can be stored in a shared folderāincluding a cloud-synced driveāso long as itās available as a mapped drive on the PCs using it.
If multiple people are working from shared job/setup files, enable file locking to prevent two users opening the same job at the same time.
