With this freedom we want ZK CE to be the centerpiece of our community. Therefore, we work closely with community members to achieve the common goal of creating a better platform in which all parties can leverage.

ZK PE and EE

ZK Commercial License

ZK PE and EE are available under a commercial license providing the scalability, performance, testing and support that enterprise application deployments require. Both editions have been deemed certified to deliver enterprise-level capabilities to meet the needs of even the most demanding organizations. Commercial License is the suitable option if you wish not to open source your application. For more information on pricing, please visit the pricing page.

ZK Open Source License (ZOL)

As we have strong belief in the community, we have therefore also made PE and EE's certified performance freely available to projects which are open source, under ZK Open Source License. ZOL is a free ZK license for open source projects. If your project is open source, please contact us to claim your free ZOL for PE or EE.
