ASTPP enterprise solution was launched when ASTPP 4, a revolutionary version of ASTPP, was launched. In the beginning, only one license buying model was offered by the ASTPP community to the businesses interested in using it. However, with time, the community leaders made the process to acquire an ASTPP enterprise solution flexible by launching two different enterprise models:
- ASTPP Managed Services
- ASTPP Self Hosting
Before getting into details of knowing the difference between these two models, let’s first understand why use the ASTPP enterprise solution.
Importance of ASTPP Enterprise Solution

These add-ons are easy to integrate into the ASTPP solution. All you need to do is click on the “Install” button of the add-on to get that add-on as one of the modules within your ASTPP solution.

ASTPP Self Hosting
Similar to ASTPP Managed Services, you will get access to all community and enterprise add-ons and features.
