License Differences

Registration Codes

Test all the features for as long as need before you purchase. We urge you to make sure your assets work within the product.

Trial License

The Trial License allows you to build Screensaver Installers for distribution for non-commercial use only. These installers will expire after seven days and will retain iScreensaver.com watermarking.

Student Educational License

The Educational Distribution License allows you to distribute unlimited numbers of customized screensaver installers worldwide, but may not be used for commerical or for-profit use. It does not include author naming or unlocking codes - features included in the "Ultimate" version. You may use the Designer software on one or two computers, however this license is for personal use only, and ordering must be from an .edu or .org email address.

Pro License

The Pro Distribution License allows you to distribute unlimited numbers of customized screensaver installers worldwide, and may be used for commerical or for-profit use. It does not include author naming or unlocking codes - features included in the "Ultimate" version. Unlocking features will retain iScreensaver.com watermarking. You may use the Designer software on one or two computers at your organization. Screensaver author name will be set to your license registration code name (the name you used when purchasing). If you plan to make screensavers on behalf of multiple clients, consider the Ultimate license which lets you customize the author name at will.

Ultimate License

The Ultimate Distribution License allows you to use iScreensaver Designer to create screensavers for distribution. You may distribute an unlimited number of the finished, customized screensaver installers worldwide. Include a locked, hidden sequence in your screensaver with the Locking option, and provide personal unlocking codes from your website. You may author screensavers for third party clients and change the author name in the final screensaver to your client's name (a feature not found in lower license levels), keeping your corporate or clients' look prominent. You may use the Designer software on one or two computers at your organization. Free email-based technical support for one year.

Site Licenses

The Ultimate Site Distribution Licenses allows you to use iScreensaver Designer on multiple computers in your organization at a single location. Multiple user license levels are available for up to 10, 50 or 100 users. Includes 12 months of advanced email technical support.

Purchasing & Registering Licenses

For more about pricing, see our web store (a secure store hosted by yahoo.com) for up-to-date credit card and PayPal information. All our features are available for product testing at any license level, however unregistered screensavers will contain a simple "Created With iScreensaver" watermark during playback. These watermarks allow our potential customers to try every feature before purchase. A non-customizable, non-editable link for software copyright terms remains within the Control Panels.

Examples of iScreensaver watermarking:

Watermark Locations

When using iScreensaver in the Trial (unpaid) license, the iScreensaver.com logo will appear in a few places. Subtle tags will appear on icons, splash screens, and in corners during playback of screensavers. They do not interfere with any assets during normal screensaver operation, other than appearing on-screen.
