Limit on Number of Users

Hi,

My team at work uses SVN to manage our software releases.  We recently added several users to the repository and now there seems to be a user-limit issue.  From what I've read on the forums, there does not seem to be a limit regarding number of users on SVN.  But our European team claims they have reached a maximum of 15 users and are now trying to inquire purchasing a license to extend that.  Can you please help shed some light on our issue and what I would need to purchase to resolve it?

Many thanks,

Subversion is open source and you're not required to pay anything to use it.

You must be using some commercial product that includes Subversion and
has some sort of licensing scheme. You'll have to talk to the vendor of
that product and also think carefully if what you get for your money (on
top of Subversion itself, which is free) is worth the cost.

SVN Edge is free and open source and has no limits on number of users.

You have not really shown any examples of where or how you are limited. It has to be some other product like an IDE or something.

Subversion Edge is from CollabNet, who employ some core Subversion
developers and make a pretty good commercial product. If you need
commercial support, I'd talk to them. And for licensing help, I'd
certainly talk to them.

No, those pages say "Subversion Edge" which is a separate product:

https://www.collab.net/products/subversion

The open-source free Subversion does not come with a web interface like that.

Do these come with the free version?  And thanks for your quick reply!

I suspect you're using the commercialized/paid VisualSVN Community which requires a paid license after 15 users...  If you're not using their web interface or reliant on that specifically, you could just migrate your SVN to the open source version if you're needing to expand beyond and avoid paid licenses.
