Compare Valentina Studio FREE | Valentina Studio Single | Valentina Studio PRO
Features marked with a ✓ are fully enabled. Features marked with an "L" are limited in some way. Features of Valentina Reports that are specific to Reports and not the Reports Viewer or Editor are not found on this document.
Valentina Studio Single supports a single database (MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc) on a single operating system and doesn't support Valentina Project (forms, JS scripts, reports etc) except in read only mode (as with Valentina Studio FREE).
You should always evaluate Studio first to ensure Valentina Studio Pro is the right solution for you.
