> Use the 1Password 'trial' (it doesn't seem to expire)

How do you defend this?

I'll buy it for any of my employees who it does expire for (where they can't access their passwords).

I mean if you aren't trialing the software, why aren't you paying for it? You've even put 'trial' in quotes, so we know you aren't really trialing it. You're simply using it.

Are you in compliance with the 1Password licence to use it long term for business without paying for it? (I don't know the answer to that)

You are right, we will start purchasing 1Password for our employees after the 30 day period.

Our company is 3 months old, so most our employees are still in the trial period.

We purchased the licenses for any employees who completed the trial.

We let our employees choose between 1Password, Last Pass, etc, they have choice (which is why they need to trial it).
