1. Differences between the Individual Plan and Enterprise Plan
When you compare the plans for the Individual and Enterprise on the UPDF Price page, you will find the plan options are the same for these two plans. Whether Individual plans or Enterprise plans, they both have plans for UPDF only, AI Only, and UPDF plus AI. Moreover, the features for UPDF and AI are the same for these two plans. However, the enterprise plan is more expensive than the individual plan. So you may feel confused about their differences. No worry, you can have a clear understanding of what are their differences and why the UPDF Enterprise Plan is more expensive after checking the below comparison.
For Individual Plan
- Personal Use: If you are using an Individual Plan on UPDF and AI, this exclusively stands appropriate in conditions where you require the tool for personal use.
- User Limit: Individual accounts only allow a single user to utilize the services of UPDF and AI.
- Device Limit: Furthermore, you can log into UPDF and AI with the same account on 4 different devices simultaneously, which includes 2 desktops and 2 mobiles.

For Enterprise Plan
- Enterprise Management Dashboard: A comprehensive Enterprise Management Dashboard is available for the company that manages all the licenses, members, and the company's virtual assets, etc.
- Flexible License Management: With flexible management of licenses available, controlling the authorization and assigning duties gets much more straightforward.
- User Limit: There are no member limits for inviting to join a company. The package bought from UPDF generally covers the number of authorized and online users. For instance, if you bought 10 licenses, you are allowed to have 10 users online simultaneously. People who turnover from the company can damage your license count. For such cases, turning off their license and authorizing it to a new user is the right way to keep your licenses proficiently.
- Device Limit: Furthermore, users using the Enterprise Plan can use the service on three devices simultaneously, including 1 desktop and 2 mobiles. It clarifies that if the user wishes to activate their enterprise account on Mac, they will have to sign themselves out of the Windows account.
- Avatar: If you are using an enterprise account of UPDF, you will see an enterprise logo on the bottom right side of your logo. This will help you distinguish between a personal and an enterprise account.

From the above comparison, you can see that the biggest difference between the Individual and Enterprise Plans is that the Enterprise Plan has the ability to manage the licenses by assigning, reassigning, and deactivating the licenses.
2. Purchase, Create a Company, and Redeem
After knowing the differences, you may decide to purchase the Enterprise plan. To ease the process, we will guide you to purchase, create, and redeem to activate the Enterprise Plans. And there are two options for you: One is to purchase the Enterprise Plan first and the other is to create a company first. We will introduce both guides to you.
2.1 Situation One: Purchasing the Enterprise Plan First
You can purchase the Enterprise Plan first and here is the guide.
Step 1: Finish the Purchase Process
While you are present on the Enterprise Plan purchasing page, you need to select the products, there are options: UPDF Perpetual Plan + AI Yearly Plan, UPDF Yearly Plan + AI Yearly Plan, UPDF Perpetual Plan, UPDF Yearly Plan, AI Yearly Plan.
Select one plan, then, define the "Number of Users" against the option available on the page.
Note: The plan can be bought directly from the website within the range of 10 users. However, with more than 10 users, contact the sales to purchase the Enterprise Plan with a volume license discount.
Now, Click on the "Buy Now" icon and you will be brought to a new page, here, you need to enter the email address (Note: It is important to enter the correct email address, as a confirmation mail is received against the address provided for buying the Enterprise Plan, which contains the order information and redeem code.), and click on the "Continue to Pay" to finish the payment.
Step 2: Click "Redeem Now" on the Successful Purchase Page
As you have completed all purchases, you will be led to a successful purchase page. On this page, you can copy the redemption code and see the redemption instructions. The best way is to click the "Redeem Now" button to start the "Create a Company" process and this will help you open the auto-redemption prompt in the Enterprise Management Dashboard. With this method, you don't need to copy the code manually.
Step 3. Create a Company
By clicking the "Redeem Now" button, you will be redirected to the "Create a Company" process. Provide the "Company Name" in the first spot. Follow through to select the "Industry Type," and continue to choose the "Number of Employees" signing up for the spot in the Enterprise Plan.
Click "Continue" to lead to the next set of pages.
Step 4. Create the Administrator Account
On the next page, provide the email account that would act as the administrator with the exclusive management rights for the Enterprise management system.
Select the "Continue" button after providing the email address. Verify with the code sent to your email and confirm the creation of the company enterprise account at UPDF.
Set up the name and password of the account under creation. Proceed according to the on-screen instructions and conclude the creation of your account successfully.
After finishing creating the company and administrator account, you will be provided with two different options to go with. If you try clicking the "Open UPDF" button, it will launch UPDF and log in with your administrator account automatically.
Step 5. Auto-Redemption on the Dashboard
On clicking the "Enterprise Management Dashboard," you will be directed to the Dashboard for the enterprise account. A prompt will appear as soon as you enter the Dashboard. Showing the prompt as "Auto-redemption," click "OK" to automatically redeem the plan.
As you continue next, the Dashboard shows that one license is already in use, which is of the administrator. Since this authorization is automatically provided to the admin, it can be manually turned off.
Note: For those users who do not receive the "Auto-redemption" prompt, they can copy the redemption code from the purchase page or email address attached to the process. After pasting the code, click the "Redeem" button present on the Dashboard.
2.2. Situation Two. Creating a Company First
You can also create a company first. Here is the guide you can follow.
Step 1. Create a Company
Follow through the link to initiate the process of creating a company.
Enter the company information to create a company, and then enter your email to create an administrator account for the company. This administrator account can manage team members and control all the authorization.
Step 2. Enter the Enterprise Management Dashboard
As the company is created, you can enter the Enterprise Management Dashboard.
Step 3. Buy License
The next thing that needs to be done is to purchase an Enterprise Plan by clicking the "Buy UPDF Licenses" or "Buy AI Licenses" in the Company Overview Dashboard. This will lead you to the enterprise price page with your admin account logged in automatically.
Select the product and number of users and process the payment.
After the payment, you will be directed to the "Successfully Purchased" page. The page displays that the Enterprise Plan has been automatically redeemed to the account.
On clicking the "Enterprise Management Dashboard" button in the center of the page, you will find that the account has been redeemed automatically. This is essential because since you have already created a company and an admin account, the license automatically redeems if bought using the admin account.
After purchasing, creating, and redeeming, you need to be familiar with the dashboard.
3. What's in the Dashboard
After you enter the Dashboard, you will find there are three main menus on the left:
3.1 Company Overview
As you find yourselves in the Enterprise Dashboard, you can observe the complete overview of the company in the "Company Overview" tab. You can find license and member count in the "Company User", "Company UPDF Licenses", and "Company AI Licenses" sections and have an overview of the license authorization and use states for UPDF and AI. Moreover, you can find the redeem button for you to redeem your license, purchase entrance to buy more licenses, options to manage members, and customize the company information.
3.2 Member Management
Continue to the "Member Management" section from the left panel. You can search the respective members in the search section provided at the top.
