You will need an unlimited site licence for the Cambridge Structural
Database System (CSDS). Access is provided via a public server
hosted at the CCDC.
WebCSD is licensed using IP address ranges - simply supply your
institution's IP range and all computers within that range will immediately gain access to WebCSD.
Industrial organisations with a CSDS licence will automatically have an unlimited seat licence including WebCSD access. Later this year you will be able to install your own local server in-house for added security and control.
For academic institutions, if you already have the CSDS but do not have an unlimited seat licence, you can upgrade your licence to unlimited seats.
