Fully agreed on the friction. It is quite annoying if you have a license, but it's not widespread at your company. The core restrictions are rediculous as well

Fully agreed on the friction. It is quite annoying if you have a license, but it's not widespread at your company. The core restrictions are rediculous as well for such an expensive product. I use it for things I need, but similar to you, I try to stick to other tools (Python for me) just to avoid the frustrations. They can move a license fairly easily, but there ended up being some other annoying issues for me recently that made me want to wash my hands entirely.
