Editions
Overview
We offer two different SCEPman editions:
Enterprise Edition
Community Edition
Both editions use the same codebase and binaries. A Community Edition can be converted to an Enterprise Edition just by inserting a SCEPman license key (and maybe doing some additional config work).
Enterprise Edition (SCEPman EE)
SCEPman EE comes with all features and is supported by our team. We charge a subscription fee for SCEPman EE.
We recommend SCEPman EE for:
Productive environments
Scalability and performance
Enterprise feature set
Community Edition (SCEPman CE)
SCEPman CE misses some features of SCEPman EE and is not supported by our team. SCEPman CE is free of charge.
We recommend SCEPman CE for:
Lab environments
Small businesses
Easy testing of SCEPman
If you want to test SCEPman in your own environment, you can follow the mandatory steps in our Standard Guide and install SCEPman directly into your lab. If you later decide to purchase SCEPman EE, you should review our Getting Started guide decision matrix and revisit all recommended and optional steps.
If your organization has Azure resource naming conventions in place and you intend to re-use the Community Edition deployment after a successful trial, please directly start with our Extended Guide (mandatory steps only). For the basic steps, no license key is required.
