Desktop license for server app

Hi,

A client asked me to modify one its Qlikview Apps. He is using a Qlikview Server and 10-15 staff are using this app. I am OK with Qlikview but have so far worked only with the free - personal edition. Now I have 2 questions :

#1 - Will the Desktop Edition @ 1,300$ give me access to the developer functionnalities required to modify this app ? And once it is modified, will my client be able to use it with its QlikView Server ? 

#2 - How do I buy a Desktop license ? The Qlik website redirect me to the French sales service ... Can't I buy this license online with a credit card ?

Best

Olivier

1. Yes, such a license will give you all you need. But if you work on-site for your client perhaps you can lease a license from their Qlikview server. For that to work their server should have a free named user license available for you and the option license lease should be enabled.

2. You can't licenses online afaik. You'll have to contact a sales representative (or perhaps a Qlikview Partner can help you purchase a license)

You are welcome! Unfortunately, Qlik doesn't offer a personal server and publisher version.
