• Organisations with strict compliance needs

Version and update control

Enterprise deployments allow customers to:

• Decide when upgrades are applied

• Test new versions in non-production environments

• Align upgrades with internal change-management processes

This level of control is not available in Share deployments, where updates are applied automatically.

---

Licensing and entitlement management

Enterprise customers receive access to a dedicated customer portal where:

• License files or keys are provided

• Product versions can be downloaded

• Release notes and updates are published

This allows Enterprise customers to manage deployments and upgrades independently.

Installation & operations

Enterprise deployment requires installation and configuration. Detailed steps are documented separately in the Enterprise Installation documentation.
