How is Gitcolony Enterprise different from Gitcolony.com?

Gitcolony Enterprise includes the same great set of features as Gitcolony.com but packaged for running on your organization's local network. All repository data is stored on machines that you control behind your firewall. Use Gitcolony Enterprise when you need complete control over repository and project information.

What hardware and software are required?

Gitcolony Enterprise ships as a Docker cointainer that runs on any computer and operative system. There are no hardware limitations!

By default, Gitcolony Enterprise runs in a self-contained authentication mode with user information stored in the Gitcolony Enterprise database. LDAP or CAS is not required.

Do you offer training?

Yes. We offer webinar-based training, in-person training and provide a myriad of free, high-quality educational materials. Please contact the Gitcolony Team for more information.

How many seats do I need and who needs seats?

Seats must be purchased for each individual in your organization that will have a Gitcolony Enterprise user account. This includes developers, project managers, designers, and other collaborators.

Which payment methods are accepted?

Invoices may be paid online by credit card, or arranged by bank wire transfer, ACH, or check.

How is Gitcolony Enterprise licensed?

Gitcolony Enterprise is licensed under a subscription model. Seats are purchased for a one-year period which includes full support and access to all updates and upgrades.

How are upgrade orders processed?

All upgrade orders you place are prorated to co-terminate with your original license.

How do I add more seats to my current license?

All upgrades are handled in your favor. We charge only for the difference in price between the number of seats you currently have and the number of seats you want total. The cost of the new seats is prorated for time remaining in your current license period, so your renewal dates for new seats will always coincide with your existing seats. You can initiate an upgrade order by clicking on the Buy More Seats button, or just contact us for assistance.

Are licenses available for less than 10 seats?

No. Licenses must be purchased in 10 seat packs. We recommend Gitcolony.com for smaller groups to start. Contact us to speak to a sales representative if you have a unique situation we should chat about.

We are a large company (1,000+ users). Do you have licensing options for us?

Yes. Contact us to speak to a sales representative about large installations.

Do you offer discounts?

Do you offer special licenses for Universities?

Yes. We offer an unlimited campus-wide student license that would cover students, faculty, and anyone working directly with students in an educational capacity.

Does the license include access to the source code?
