Hi, we are looking to use the V2V converter in our production environment. I read in another thread that this is allowed (thread https://forums.starwindsoftware.com/vie ... =15&t=4638). However, reading the license agreement it seems like it is not for production use, not sure if this changed recently. Please advise.

USE OF SOFTWARE: StarWind Free / evaluation software is provided for
personal and internal use only and may not be used for commercial or
production purposes.
In contrary commercial versions of software provided
with the right for commercial or production use without restrictions.

This is a part of the general license agreement. This means that you cannot sell the free/trial software. The trial version is not intended for production use.
May I wonder if it is a part of the license agreement from the latest build?

Thanks for your reply. I am using StarWind V2V Converter (9.0.1.268) and the text I copied is from the license agreement during the installation. Looks like V2V Converter does not have a trial version since it is free, so if I am understanding correctly we CAN use V2V Converter for production use?
