How is Nextedy RISKSHEET priced?

Nextedy RISKSHEET pricing is based on license type (named user or concurrent user) and tier (evaluation or production). Named user licenses are priced per assigned user, while concurrent user licenses are priced per maximum simultaneous user slot. Production licenses include full feature access and ongoing support, while evaluation licenses provide temporary access for testing purposes. Contact Nextedy sales for current pricing information and volume discounts. See Choose License Tier for feature comparison across tiers.

​
Is there a free trial available?

Yes, Nextedy offers evaluation licenses for both named user and concurrent user models, allowing you to test RISKSHEET in your Polarion environment before purchasing. Evaluation licenses typically have time limits and may restrict certain advanced features compared to production licenses. See Evaluate RISKSHEET for trial setup instructions and feature limitations during evaluation periods.

​
What’s the difference between named user and concurrent user pricing?

Named user pricing charges per specific Polarion user assigned a RISKSHEET license—each named user has dedicated, permanent access regardless of usage frequency. Concurrent user pricing charges per maximum simultaneous user slot—any Polarion user can access RISKSHEET, but total active sessions cannot exceed your licensed count. Named user licenses cost more per license but guarantee access, while concurrent licenses offer flexibility for teams with rotating or occasional users. See Understand License Types for detailed cost-benefit analysis.

​
Does POWERSHEET licensing cost extra?

Yes, POWERSHEET and RISKSHEET are separate products with independent licensing and pricing. You can purchase either product alone or both together. When both products have valid production licenses, RISKSHEET automatically unlocks enhanced features through POWERSHEET integration—no additional license fee for the integration itself, but you must license both products. See Licensing Model for dual-product licensing architecture.

​
Are updates and support included in the license price?

Production licenses typically include maintenance and support, covering software updates, bug fixes, and technical assistance for the license term. Evaluation licenses may have limited or no support depending on your agreement. License renewal is usually required annually to maintain access to updates and support. Contact Nextedy for specific support terms and renewal pricing. See Update RISKSHEET for update procedures.

​
Can I upgrade from evaluation to production mid-term?

Yes, you can upgrade from an evaluation license to a production license at any time—RISKSHEET detects the license change automatically and adjusts available features without requiring reinstallation or server restart. Your configuration and data remain intact during the upgrade. Pricing for mid-term upgrades typically credits your evaluation period against the production license cost. Contact Nextedy sales for upgrade pricing and procedures. See Licensing Model for license transition behavior.

​
Do I pay per project or per server?

RISKSHEET licenses are priced per Polarion server instance, not per project. A single license (named or concurrent) grants access to RISKSHEET across all projects on that server where the plugin is installed. You don’t need separate licenses for each project, making multi-project deployments cost-effective. See Configure Multi-Project Setup for deploying RISKSHEET across multiple projects with a single license.
