Benefits

Why use Unit-based End-user Device License?

The Unit-based End-user Device License is perpetual and used one license per; server, virtual machine or node. This license allows you to create applications that run on desktops, laptops and/or mobile devices instead of of the number of servers, and allows you to generate an unlimited amount of PDFs. There’s a one-time fee for the use of our production end-user devices. The use of our non-production end-user devices is mandatory, which is why you can purchase it with a 50% discount (e.g. testing, development, Q&A, UAT, BA or DR).

You don't have to share your application and/or source code (closed-source)

This license has significant benefits when compared to AGPL, because it releases you from “copyleft” AGPL license requirements, as well as from the requirements to not change the PDF Producer line in the document’s properties. It offers indemnification in the event of IP (intellectual property) or patent infringement and grants you access to iText’s professional and dedicated support team.

We have used iText for over 7 years in the DocuSign flagship product, our eSignature services. We use it with the purpose of extracting text, applying watermarks, and performing other general purpose PDF functions. We use iText to provide high availability and a reliable service to our customers and their documents.

We chose iText to power the PDF signing part of AIS due to its ease of use and flexibility. Thanks to its provision of an abstraction layer for PDF, it enables our customers to produce digitally signed PDFs without having to know about the PDF specifications.

Using the iText DITO Editor to develop our report templates is a huge time saver. I can now do in just 45 minutes what would have taken over two weeks to do in code using other PDF libraries!

We chose iText over other open source solutions because it was really quick and easy to develop our application using iText. That's thanks to the guides and documentation available on the iText website, and the many examples on developer communities like Stack Overflow.
