> I appreciate the software development costs, but £25 for a single node locked license is steep. I'd like to see that extended to at least a couple of PCs + a laptop as many advanced users (who can regex :) ) are likely to have at least a couple of PCs round the house in these work from home days.

Ignoring the cost, Directory Opus is one of the few pieces of software that I have not encountered licensing issues with. Need to reinstall Windows, the certificate is applied without a fuss. Need to transfer the license to a new computer, the certificate is applied without a fuss. Using an old version, the certificate is applied without a fuss and disabling the update manager means it won't pester you to upgrade. The only time I was grumpy with their support policies was when I had to upgrade to update SSH support.
