Before purchasing Plesk v2, I want to know is licence reusable?
If I expand and get another server or serveral more can I reuse the 300 domain name package on the new servers?

I think this is the case since I would be paying for 300 on one machine. Anyone the answer to this sucker?

Thanks

James :D

If you are meaning that you buy one copy and use it on more than one server, then the answer is no.

Why is that? I would like to use the license on other machines in my company. If I purchase an unlimited domain name package what is the point? So I can cram an unlimited amount of domains on one machine?

Does anyone know how to purchase a plesk package and then reuse the same package legally within the same company without having to purchase the same package?

Confused. Thanks

The point isn't so you 'can cram an unlimited amount of domains on one machine', it is so you can host any number of domains on the one machine (as opposed to their other licenses with have a hard limit).

Most software is per machine and/or per processor.

I'm sure they have multiple license discounts and they also have reseller programs available that you might be able take advantage of.

It would be nice if they had some different purchase options (instead of jumping from a 30-domain to a 300-domain license), but now matter how you slice it Plesk is one of the least expensive full-featured control panels (with no #$%#& recurring licensing fees!!!) so you can't really complain. I also love that they give you a one-domain version for *free*, so you can set it up and experiment all you want.

they've got fantastic support too - and the unlimited domain licence is good if you do a lot of web forwarding etc or have alot of resellers which plesk is very good for

As far as we know there is also the possibility to buy 100 or 500 domains licenses but not directly, you should ask to a Plesk partner. Some of them are offering intermediate solution else than 30 or 300 and accept low monthly fees also.
