Trial and Free
Direct downloads include a 30-day Pro trial. It starts the first time you reach a Free allowance. After it ends, Free remains available and saved projects and logs are kept.

Before you choose
Cloud traffic
Cloud traffic is metered per account, separately from local Pro tools. The local Pro trial does not itself increase your cloud allowance.
Personal or Enterprise
Both unlock the same Pro tools. They differ in purchasing and activation: organization billing, invoice details, seat counts and offline activation are Enterprise arrangements.
