Licensing model
License projects, not headcount.
SQACE prices projects and maturity levels. Users, storage and CPU are always unlimited, in every line.
Guiding principle
Two lines, one difference.
SQACE Team
For teams that want to test: pipelines, migrations and data processing.
SQACE Enterprise
For organisations that must prove they have tested.

FAQ
Frequent questions about the licensing model
What is a Mission Base?
A Mission Base is a protected, isolated data space for a test project. Each Mission Base has its own data connections, rules, results and access rights. Typically: one migration project = one Mission Base.
Why is there no user limit?
Because your whole team should be able to see results (power users, business experts, compliance, management, auditors) without each extra viewer raising the price. You pay for projects, not headcount.
What's the difference between Team and Enterprise?
SQACE Team includes the full testing functionality. Enterprise adds the compliance layer: a tamper-proof audit trail, formal approval workflows, SSO and verification on real production data. Full Enterprise additionally offers Mission Spaces and dedicated support. If your compliance department demands evidence, you need Enterprise.
What is the Production Server?
A separate SQACE server in your sealed production environment. Solutions are deployed from the dev server and run read-only on production data. Developers never touch prod data. Privacy by design. Available for Enterprise only.
Can I move from Team to Enterprise?
Yes. The Team price you paid is credited pro rata against the Enterprise license. You only pay the difference. So you can start with Team risk-free and upgrade when needed.
Is SQACE cloud-based or on-premise?
SQACE is installed on-premise or in your private cloud, on your infrastructure, under your control. That’s why storage and CPU are unlimited: it’s your hardware.
