"Project is not easy to scale. It isn't a cloud-based solution where everybody can utilize it at the same time without version issues when you save your file.

"Licensing costs vary depending on the user volume. The pricing is good, I'd rate it four out of five."

"It probably was $30 per license on a monthly basis. There is no additional fee."
