Licensing Options

Data Compare can be purchased with a 1-year subscription or with a perpetual, lifetime license. A subscription license includes additional tools, receives all updates released during the time subscription is active and, in general, provides a better value than the perpetual license.

You can get a lifetime, perpetual license for Data Compare only or the Comparison Bundle, the package that contains both Data Compare and Schema Compare. We recommend you include a maintenance plan with the perpetual license, so that you receive all the patches, major releases and the support for the latest versions of SQL Server.

In addition to the licensing options below, we can provide also temporary extensions, subscriptions longer than 1 year, volume licensing for large organizations, third-party sellers or virtual environments. Other licensing types may be available as well, just send us a note at sales@xsql.com and we will do our best to help you.

Data Compare Editions: Licenses, Trial and Lite

Let us state, in order to avoid confusion, that there is only one package that you need to install, not three of them. Edition is a state of Data Compare, which, depending on the licensing and the environment, could be one of the following:

Trial Mode: For the first 2 weeks after a new installation, Data Compare operates in the Trial mode. During this time, it is fully functional with no restrictions.
Lite Edition: When the 2-week trial ends, Data Compare switches to the Lite Edition if no license is found. You can still compare SQL Server Express with no restrictions, but other SQL Server editions are limited to 25 tables and 40 views, procedures or functions (each).
Licensed Edition: It is enabled when you activate a license. Not all licenses however are the same. We provide two licensing models: a subscription-based license, usually 1 year, and a perpetual, lifetime license.
A subscription will give you all the patches and updates that we release during the time that subscription is active. With a perpetual license on the other hand, you will get the latest build at the time of purchase, but not the ones after. This can change if you include a maintenance plan with the perpetual license.

We also provide free upgrade to any major build released within 1 month of your purchase (subject to change).
