Help Me Out

[Chris1234]

Well, I'm thinking about purchasing an owned license to vBulletin but I was wondering what the Branding Free Option, Professional Installation, vBulletin Project tools, and vBulletin Blog are. Also, are they nessessary for making a forums website. I'm completely new to vBulletin and new to making a website so please help me out.

Thanks

None of those are needed to run vB. Just the license and a web host and a domain.

Branding Free: No "vBulletin, Copyright Jelsoft..." at the bottom
Professional Install: They'll install it for you. I recommend trying yourself before considering this option
Project Tools: Project Management integrated with vB
Blog: Blog addon for vB

Branding Free - Allows you to remove the copyright from the footer that says the software is vBulletin and Jelsoft's copyright info. Note buying brand free does not give you the ability to rebrand.

Professional Installation - Installation done by a Jelsoft Team Member. It can be purchased later on afterwards.

Project Tools - Project management add-on. It can be purchased later on afterwards.

Blog - Blog Addon. It can be purchased later on afterwards.

Sure, project tools is an add-on...but, what is in it? What does it do? What options does it have that makes it worth buying?
