If your company resides in the European Union and has a valid VAT ID, please enter this information in the VAT ID field of the online order form.

  Upon making the purchase through our e-store you will find a special 'License Holder Details' section where you will be able to fill out the end-user details (email and name). The license will be automatically activated under the License Holder's account and he/she will receive an email with download instructions whereas the electronic invoice will be sent to the email entered under "Billing Information."

• What types of credit cards do you accept?

  We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, JCB, Diners Club and Carte Blanche. The advantage of using a credit card to make your payment is that your order will be processed immediately and you will be able to download the software without delay.

• Do you offer refunds?

  We are very proud that only a few customers have requested a refund because we provide a quality pre-sales experience:
  
  • Our trials are fully functional and never expire
  • Our trial license includes sixty days of free Technical Support, so you can contact our technical support team
  • Our products are well-documented and they are supplemented with a vibrant, active on-line community
  
  Returns are honored by special request only and cannot be guaranteed.  Generally, we make refunds only in case a credit card was stolen and used to purchase a Telerik product license.
  
  There are no refunds on subscription renewals or licenses with subscription once the source code has been downloaded.  For refunds of licenses without subscriptions, please e-mail us at sales@telerik.com with the reason(s) why you are requesting a refund, and a member of our team shall respond promptly to your inquiry.

Licensing (Expand All) (Collapse All)

• How do you license your Developer licenses?

  Our Developer Licenses allow 1 developer to work with the design-time product. If you purchase a license for multiple products, i.e. Telerik Premium Collection for .NET license, still only 1 developer would be able to use the Telerik tools.

  The Developer Licenses are perpetual and have NO deployment limitations - they allow the use of our controls for an unlimited number of applications spanning various servers and domains. In contrast to competitive products, the Telerik Developer License works WITHOUT license keys and you can be certain that you will never get a license key error.

• I purchased a Developer License a couple of weeks before your major version release. Am I eligible for a free upgrade?

  Yes, we offer free major version product updates if you have placed your order within 30 days prior to the official release of the major version.

• What are the advantages of the License with Subscription?

  The Developer License with Subscription and Priority Support is the best choice for professional developers. Below you will find the reasons why our customers prefer this licensing option:

  - 1 Year Subscription - enjoy a full year of free updates and take advantage of the latest and greatest Telerik products. Telerik has the most aggressive product roadmap releasing new products and updates 3 times per year. The subscription renewal price is only 50% of the list price of the Subscription License.

  - Source Code - the license provides you with full C# and JavaScript source code.

  - Priority Support Package -  As a Subscription holder you get our Priority Support Package which guarantees that your support inquiries will be answered within 24h (Mon-Fri).

  All the above benefits are not available with the standard Developer License. If you purchase a license without subscription, you will only receive the Service Pack releases for the version you purchased. You will not receive the next official release version. You will not be entitled to source code access. The Developer License comes with Standard Support Package - the guaranteed response time is 48h (Mon-Fri).

• Are the support packages different for the different licenses?

  Yes, each license has a different support package.

  License Type	Trial License	Developer License	Developer License with Subscription
  Support Package	Trial	Standard	Priority
  All issues addressed by Senior Support Engineers
  Issue escalation to product development teams
  Priority involvement in Beta Programs
  Access to support forum
  Access to priority support channels for quickest service
  Unlimited Web-based requests using my Support
  Major version updates for 1 year
  Validity	60 days	1 year	1 year

• What happens with my support package when my subscription expires?

  Both the Standard and Priority support packages expire after 1 year. If you want to renew your support, you need to renew/purchase a subscription license for one of the suites. If you decide not to renew your support package, you will still be able to use the forum and KB articles, but you will not be able to take advantage of the on-line ticketing system or e-mail support.

• Can I use the product(s) after my subscription expires?

  You can continue using the products that were licensed to you during the subscription term even after the subscription expires. In case you would like to continue to receive product updates and support, you need to renew your subscription.

• Can I assign users from anywhere in the world to my license?

  Upon your purchase of a product license you become the License Holder and a customer account is created in our system. You will have access to a special utility in Your Account from where you can assign licensed users (developers or consultants). The assigned user will receive his/her own credentials to log into the system and will have access to the software and support.
  
  Whenever you decide to re-assign the product to another user you can delete the current Licensed User from your Users list and assign a new User. There will not be a physical transfer of the license as everything happens online and is a matter of granting rights regardless of where the user is located.

• Am I entitled to free upgrades as part of my license?

  Depending on the license which you have purchased you may be entitled to Service Pack releases only or to Major Version Releases.
  
  If you have purchased a Developer License with Subscription and Priority Support, you will be entitled to receive all Major Version Releases and corresponding Service Packs within 1 year from the purchase date.
  
  If you have purchased a Developer License (without Subscription), you will be entitled only to Service Pack releases for the major version you have purchased.

• Which license should I purchase if I want to buy the Source code?

  The source code is available with the Developer License with Subscription and Priority Support. To note, as part of the license you will also receive source code updates during the 1 year subscription term.

• How does your licensing handle redistribution rights?

  Our developer licenses are royalty free - the licensed developer can use our tools in:
  
  •  .NET solutions for internal company use
  •  Hosted ASP.NET (AJAX) applications
  •  Commercial solutions deployed for end-customers by our customers
  
  There are only 3 limitations which require additional discussion with our sales team:
  
  • A product that exposes the design-time of our products. Examples: Visual Studio.NET plug-in, code generators. More or less, none of the commercial component vendors is OK with this type of usage.
  • Modules/components that DO not add significant primary functionality. Example: a DotNetNuke skin that is sold as a separate product and includes RadMenu. In such cases we offer skin developers a reseller arrangement so that everyone has an incentive to enter into a relationship.
  • Open source projects. We are avid supporters of many open source initiatives. However, our standard policies do not allow the native integration of our products in open source products as there aren't any good ways to protect our products in such an environment. It's just too much legal lingo and administration to ensure that everyone downloading a project on SourceForge knows what's inside, what parts of the solution he/she can use freely and which he/she cannot and so on.
  
  If your desired use falls under any of the three categories listed above, please get in touch with our sales team at sales@telerik.com. We will be happy to discuss your needs and see what we can do to accommodate your case.

• How is the software delivered?

  The software is delivered electronically only. There is no physical shipment.

• How do I obtain my credentials for my customer account and download the software?

  After placing an order you should receive 2 e-mails: one with payment information and another one with software download instructions.

  If you have sent us a Purchase Order, please allow 24 hours for processing.

Trials (Expand All) (Collapse All)

• Do you offer a free trial?

  We offer fully functional trials which work without license keys and can be conveniently deployed on any development, test or production machine. The only difference between the trial and the developer build is that with the evaluation copy you will get a trial message on top of the control once in a while when the control is rendered. Upon replacing the trial dll with the developer dll, the trial message will disappear.

• How long can I use a free trial?

  The free trial licenses of all Telerik Developer Tools will work for an unlimited time but with trial messages displayed randomly on the page.

Products (Expand All) (Collapse All)

• Is RadControls for DNN included in the RadControls suite for ASP.NET AJAX License?

  Yes, the DNN suite is part of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX and you don’t need to purchase a separate license for RadControls for DNN. DNN providers, skin objects and modules are included as a separate download under RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX category.

• Are the individual controls available separately or just as part of the suites?

  The controls can only be purchased as part of the respective product suites (RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX, RadControls for WinForms, RadControls for Silverlight and RadControls for WPF). The controls share common frameworks/resources and cannot be shipped separately.

• Will you continue to support the individual Telerik ASP.NET controls?

  Updates and bug fixes were offered through 2010. Currently we offer limited support only. For more detailed information about Telerik product lifecycle and .NET version support please review the products lifecycle .
