Question:
How is Developer Studio different than the fully-licensed versions of any of the Chart FX and Grid FX Products?

Answer:
Any product included in Developer Studio is a development-only product. In order to deploy your project, you must migrate to the full version of the particular product. Please view the Developer Studio Comparison Chart to see how Developer Studio fits into the Software FX product line.

Question:
Can I buy a license of Developer Studio ($499) instead of buying a more expensive Development Seat ($899) for Chart FX 7?

Answer:
You can, but you will be limited to viewing your page on the development machine only, rather than over an internal network as the Development Seat allows you to do. If you have further questions, please review this document.

Question:
What happens when I'm ready to deploy the application I've developed in Developer Studio?

Answer:
It is necessary to purchase the full license of the product you're using before you deploy your application. When you are ready, you can migrate from Developer Studio to a full version of the product(s) you've used using a migration path.

Question:
Am I forced to install the entire product line, even if I only need certain products?

Answer:
No. Developer Studio allows the developer to install only the components that fit the specific development requirements. So you can install as few or as many components as required by the project.
