Client vs. server licensing

Bitvise SSH Server and SSH Client are separate products, and are licensed separately. Our SSH Client can be used free of charge, but does not include a license for Bitvise SSH Server. Similarly, a purchased license for Bitvise SSH Server does not imply a license for any particular client software. You will need client software to connect to a server you set up.

If you use Bitvise software in conjunction with other software not published by Bitvise, you will need to obtain any necessary license for such other software from its developers or publishers.
