Should I choose Plex-Earth Basic or Pro? +

It depends on the level of detail and terrain capabilities you need:

• Choose Basic if you primarily work with single images, meaning you can import only one image at a time to cover your area. This is ideal for projects up to 5 sq. km, especially when using Google Maps imagery, but may require manual adjustments for larger sites or when working with smaller areas that need higher detail and resolution.
• Choose Pro if you need imagery mosaics, allowing you to automatically cover any area with multiple high-resolution image tiles. It also includes higher terrain resolution and advanced tools such as terrain analysis, mesh generation, and GeoTIFF imports. Pro ensures the highest terrain detail at any scale, and mosaics help streamline work even in small areas, saving time and effort.

Why upgrade to Pro? +

If you need to analyze terrain, create accurate 3D models, or work with detailed imagery, Plex-Earth Pro provides greater flexibility and precision. It gives you complete control over imagery quality, terrain accuracy, and modeling capabilities for well-informed design decisions.

Even for smaller projects, Pro’s mosaics let you automatically cover areas with high-resolution imagery, making your workflow faster and more efficient.

Standalone vs. Floating – What’s the Difference? +

✔ Standalone License (Single Users)

• Assigned to a specific user on a PC
• Can be installed on one device per user
• Best for individuals or teams with dedicated workstations

Best for: Engineers working on a single machine with no need for sharing.

✔ Floating License (Shared Licenses)

• Can be installed on two devices per license, but only one can be active at a time
• Ideal for teams that need shared access
• Perfect for work + home setups – seamlessly switch between locations
• No license manager required – allocation is handled by our cloud platform

Best for: Companies, teams, or individuals needing flexible access across multiple locations.

Which One Should You Choose?

• Standalone → Best for dedicated use on a single device
• Floating → Best for teams or work-from-home setups with cloud-based management

How do Floating Licenses work? +

Floating licenses allow multiple users to share access to Plex-Earth. A single license can be used on two PCs, but only one can be active at a time.

• Floating licenses provide shared access among multiple users and can be installed on up to two PCs per license.
• The exact number of concurrent users is flexible and will be specified during the checkout process.

Example:

• 1 floating license can be shared among 2 PCs, with 1 user working at a time—perfect for work + home usage.
• 2 floating licenses can be shared among 4 PCs, with 2 users working simultaneously—ideal for small teams or shared office setups.
