Reply to: Jetbrains sale

Hmm didn't see this, I thought personal meant, one developer rather than everyone in your company can use it. Wonder if they will reject my purchase as I used my company card to buy it.

It often does but they explicitly state the company can't buy or reimburse you. Of course the issue is not that they will know and block the sale, but that you're breaking the license... it's down to your conscience. Technically, it's no different than getting the free open-source license and then using it for your regular work.

Personally speaking if I mistakenly bought it through the company account without knowing the rule, I wouldn't worry enough to fix it, but having read the terms first I wouldn't be comfortable and would just buy it on my own CC.

I assume they are maybe keen to get individuals hooked so they will then lobby employers to get licenses?

After confirming orders, JetBrains will be handling license delivery that could take up to 48 hours but we'll be working as fast as we can.

JetBrains @jetbrains
Update from payment processor: all pending orders are expected to be confirmed/processed by EOD today (CET) ~ in approx. 6-7 hours.

Bet there will be a few folks getting bagged for that. FAIL!

Contractors are not eligible to purchase the personal editions through their Ltd companies, or claim it back as an expense of course.

Unclear to me if I can personally buy a copy of resharper and then install it on my machine at client site for my personal use though.

Same here. Looking back at my purchase for ReSharper 6.0 last year, the licence key was sent 3 mins after the payment confirmation. They must have quite a backlog.

yeah, email says the license may take up to 48 hours, backlog must be massive

I haven't had my Jetbrains email yet, only the payment confirmation.

I think that is fine.

Just like a permie buying it and using it at work. It is fine for commercial use.

Me neither nor someone else at client co.

He did get an email from a different order this morning that threw him but I think they have just been swamped with demand and have a manual process step.

The terms and conditions that arrived in the second email confirm a 7 day cooling off period and with no record of my initial paypal order I've gone and made a second order which has given me something that looks like a complete order.

Have you had an email yet? I bought yesterday at 6:30pm but still nothing?

WHS - just upgraded to ReSharper 7.0 for less than £20 inc VAT.
