For commercial or non-commercial usage?

• ptrott2017 6y ago
  Commercial per node. There are also maintenance licenses etc as per most other commercial renderers You can also rent 10 nodes per week fot $50 (for example rendering on multiple nodes in a small render farm) For non-commercial there is a free-non-commercial license so you can learn how to use it at no cost.

    Also want to toss in that it is free for educational institutions as well. Just reach out to them and verify things and you can get a floating license setup with an agreed upon (iirc) number of licenses). For my university I got 100 licenses (includes 100 separate seats of Tractor, the render queue scheduler) with pretty much no effort, and it (RenderMan) was very easy to setup. Tractor is a different story...

    Renting nodes makes sense these days? I've seen a mailing list post by I think Larry Gritz around 2000 noting that in case of serious productions, bandwidth for assets proportionate to the computational power required or provided would be infeasible for off-premises data centers.
