Using Parallel Studio XE 2018 after new purchase of OneAPI

[MartinRoss]

Hello - I have been directed here by support to get an answer to questions about the following scenario.

A new user purchases a oneAPI license but actually needs to use Parallel Studio XE 2018 software which they do not have.

1) Is a download of Parallel Studio XE 2018 software available for download to a new oneAPI customer?  

2) How is Parallel Studio XE 218 software licensed in this case?

Thanks.

Martin Ross.

Hi Martin, please know that the oneAPI license is backward compatible. Hence, the user can use the Intel parallel studio version 2018. If the download option is not available do let us know. We will share the download link from our end which can be used to download the package.

Have a nice day ahead!

Thank you for your reply. Good to know that the oneAPI license is backward compatible with parallel studio XE and that parallel studio XE is still available for download when a oneAPI license is purchased.
