Term of use in companies

Post by davidtalero13 »

Hi All

I am currently using VirtualBox in the company to do development tests, would I like to validate if I have to acquire a license for this?

Thanks

Per https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Licensing_FAQ Virtualbox itself and Guest Additions can be used anywhere anytime.

The Extension Pack has limitations on where it can be used without buying a license.

Buying an Extension Pack license is mondo expensive because you have to buy 100 of them minimum, but maybe your company won't mind.

You might be able to get by without the Extension Pack, especially since starting in 7.0 USB filtering is now in the main Virtualbox installation, not in the Extension Pack anymore.
