Hi,
I read at many places that if you want to open QVW created by others, you need to buy QlikView desktop license. But I just spoke to sales guy and he said there is no such option, either you use restricted personal edition or buy server license with minimum 5 named CAL if you want named CAL license.
Please help me on this as my current objective is to learn and able to view qvw docs created by other users. thanks in advance!

Digvijay
Hi Digvijay,
Earlier this type of licenses we sold, now they are giving licenses only for Partners. Earlier in my company I use to have this type of license, I think now it is not available or they are not selling.
Without the license also you can do everything but the only limitation is you can't open the file created by others.

Digvijay,
For self learning purpose, there is no need of license. You can use personal edition.
There are only two limitations while using QlikView with the Personal Edition license:

For self learning purpose, personal edition is enough. Most of the learning document materials are personal edition enabled only. You may able to open the documents.
Thanks Suresh, I am aware of the limitations of PE, actually I want to know whether I can buy desktop license or not. Frankly speaking I want to get rid of limitations of opening others doc being shared in community responses. The sales guy said I need to buy server license as no option to by desktop license now. I don't think its true that Qlikview don't sell desktop licenses of Qlikview, so wanted to clarify.
You should ask for a "QlikView Local Client"-license. Doesn't need a server, and this local license is still listed in the July 2015 price list. Although your actual situation may warrant a server installation, I don't know that.
Good luck,
Peter

Thanks Peter for confirming my understanding, I just needed licensed desktop version without limitations so that I can freely use QVWs which I receive from others. I was using the licensed one lately but just came out of the current organization and was feeling very uncomfortable with limited version PE I downloaded last week.
Hi Suresh,
So you also feel that desktop license is not available? Can you verify it from somewhere as Peter also confirmed my understanding.
