If you are looking into using OMNEST for simulation projects within your company, or you searching for an embeddable simulation kernel for your product, please check the Licensing FAQ and the license conditions below, and contact us so that we can provide you with further details.

Commercial licenses come in two basic forms. Perpetual licenses are available, and can be used indefinitely, with the option to upgrade if a major release becomes available. We have also recently introduced the option to rent licenses at a flat rate for 12 months. This will allow for the flexible configuration of licenses used, while also reducing the initial investment necessary to start using OMNeT++ in commercial endeavors.

Standard licensing

We offer seat licenses.

One-year lease option

We offer to deduct the last 12 months' rental fees from the price, if an existing rental license is later converted to a perpetual license. This effectively means that you can start using OMNeT++ at a much lower price than standard licenses, and recover the first year's rental fee when you convert to perpetual licenses.

The option of prolongation of the rental is also available, and you can extend or reduce the number of licenses rented as you please. Rental of less than 12 months is not on offer, and our discount offer is limited to the last 12 months of rental fees only.

Redistribution

Both Rental and Perpetual licenses carry the option to redistribute your simulation code, NED files, etc. All IP you create in OMNeT++ is yours to distribute as you please. The licenses do not permit the distribution of self-running simulations however, since these must contain a part of OMNeT++ to function. We refer to these as "derivative products", and must consider their application in detail (scope, planned number, distribution, etc.) if you plan to use them extensively. Note that if your counterpart (or colleague) also has access to OMNeT++, then the distribution of binaries is usually not necessary.

We hope the above has met with your requirements. Please do not hesitate to contact us for details.
