Upgrade Procedure from Community Edition to Enterprise Edition

Overview

This page explains the steps to upgrade Pleasanter from Community Edition to Enterprise Edition.

Cautions

When you upgrade to Enterprise Edition, the behaviour is as follows.

  1. The license becomes a commercial license. You can check this from "Help" - "Version" on the navigation menu.
  2. You can expand the number of columns available for each column type, such as classification columns and numeric columns.
  3. An upper limit on the number of registered users is set according to the annual support service plan you contracted, and you cannot register users beyond that limit.
  4. Pleasanter Extensions (Site Visualizer, Code Assist, Operations Tools, Development Tools) become available.

When you use MySQL as the database, there are restrictions on the use of Pleasanter Extensions. For details, refer to "Database Limitations".
