Licensed version of unity

Hi,

We presently have free version of unity 5.4.0f3 installed.

We are doing a pilot project for hololens using unity, and now want to move to licensed version of unity.

We found two different versions of unity Plus and Pro. What is the difference between these two versions in terms of features?

Can we proceed with Plus version?

Can we switch our project which was done in unity free version to unity licensed version of unity?

    Hi @Afreen_Firdous26,

    Yes, you can work on a project you started in the personal (free) edition after you switch to Plus or Pro.

    Feature-wise, the Plus version will let you use custom splash screens, which is a good thing if you are developing commercial apps.

    You would want to move to Pro and Enterprise if you are planning to make a lot of money on your app or have lots of concurrent users or have a reason for needing to look at the Unity source.

    I'm pretty happy with Plus, myself.

    @Afreen_Firdous26,

    You don't have to reinstall anything. The license gets associated with a Unity account. You're buying development "seats", so you assign the license to someone on your team. Or buy multiple seats and assign them to multiple people on your team.

    I don't understand the difference between seats and users here.
