Hi,This is my first post. I was forced to post it here since Alfresco support is very bad and been 24 hours and no reply.I would like to know if there are any limitation (user, cpu, folder structure) for community edition?Thanks!

The Community version is not a production-ready release, it is just a demo that you can use to implement a POC on top of Alfresco.

Please consider that just only basic tests are used to release the community version and it doesn't include the following items/features:

- JMX tools
- Clustering
- Replication
- Activiti and indexing console (you can reindex a range of nodes at runtime without restarting Alfresco)
- Hot configuration without restarting Alfresco
- Enterprise connectors: Oracle, SQL Server, SAP, Kofax, Autocad and XAM
- Bugfixes in the Enterprise layer (LDAP, Authentication, Subsystems, etc…)

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply. It helps a lot.

In that case I might be looking at on-premise subscription. For Alfresco Standard Subscription, is it yearly basis or one-time payment? I email to info@alfresco.com for twice already and they do not reply since yesterday. So please help me if you know if it is one-time or yearly subscription.

Thanks!

DiEg0,

The subscription is yearly and is based on the number of CPUs you are running. There are no up-front license costs. If you PM me with your location and your email address, I'll make sure someone gets in touch with you about a subscription.
