Network rendering - what do I need?

Hello there!

I've been using octane for the past 2+ years, on 2 computers. one is running on a perpetual license (V4 atm), and the second on subscription.

up until now, I simply loaded the scenes on both computers and rendered them separately on each. now, I'm about to purchase a third pc, and thinking what is the most economical way to take, if I wish to render with octane on all 3 computers?

will I need 3 licenses? or is there something that I'm missing, like a way to send renders from a single license to multiple computers/use the GPU of another computer?

thank in advance :)

I think OTOY will need to answer this, but it might be something like just purchasing an Enterprise Render Node for the third PC to act as a render slave.

Aren't you part of OTOY? :-)

All I see is an option to buy an entire enterprise license (699euro).
