- Floating licenses work with a license pool. Per license four users can be added to the pool and share the license. One user at a time can retrieve the BIMcollab Zoom license. An administrator can assign users to the license pool.
- Personal licenses as individual licenses without a BIMcollab Nexus subscription. These licenses are linked to one email address and cannot be shared.
