Multiseat Subscription Licenses are also available with 2 options:
Network:
- Using a centralised License Server application on a server, administrators can install Sibelius on multiple computers (more than your number of licenses) and activate licenses any connected to your network. It allows one license on your server to control deployment across your entire network and your team's files and machines. Users can check out a license (e.g. for holidays) to run off the network.
- You can freeze/unfreeze workstations, get scores from a workstation or send a score to one or more copies of Sibelius on the network.
- Music created anywhere can be edited and reviewed by anyone, anywhere.
Teams:
- Team licensing is an easy way to deploy and manage licenses for your team on their own devices. Using the Admin Console you can assign and unassign licenses when a member of your team join or leave and they can have Sibelius Ultimate on any of their personal devices .
- Administrators set up Users with only the user’s name and email address (can be batch processed using CSV upload). Each User gets an invitation to create a MyAvid account and redeem a license for Sibelius Ultimate and is then provided with the downloads and entitlement to use Sibelius on any of their devices: Windows, Mac, iPhone or iPad (Android and Chromebook support coming soon).
Avid has a series of 5 videos for customers new to Sibelius. These videos are free of charge and cover:
