Wizard-Only License
gmStudio is available with a Lite Edition License that restricts users to running the Wizard to produce default translations.
- The Lite Edition may be a good fit for organizations that want a quick, standard translation and detailed reports to help them expedite a more manual rewrite.
- The Lite Edition does not allow customizing translation rules or reporting rules except through the options offered on the Upgrade Wizard Project Settings page.
- The Lite Edition has a limited user interface: when running with Lite License, the gmStudio user interface is limited to the Upgrade Wizard form.
