BUT you might have submitted a job to some renderfarm that uses Deadline as its management software. This would explain the confusion. This article above is mainly about the fact that you can download the full version of the Deadline Network Manager and run it at home or your office with up to two render nodes without license or any feature limitations. (Funnily enough, I was the one who proposed this free mode to our management several years ago, and it was finally available with version 2.5 last Siggraph).

Okay, well I guess I'm a little confused. :) I did, however, submit a test job and it was rendered on your machines, not mine. I didn't take time to setup anything on my end. And, there was no processing on my machine. So, now I'm really confused... Oh. Okay, well I guess I'm a little confused. :)

Deadline is a Network Manager software you use to control your OWN machines. You don't get access to a remote render farm, you build your own using your own PCs, then render on them. Trust me, I am involved in its development. Kernon, I was responding to you, because your claims are misleading.

And, Deadline is, in fact, the renderfarm. I was responding to Logan.

It has nothing to do with how many machines you have of your own. 2 free nodes means 2 free nodes on the Deadline renderfarm. It has nothing to do with how many machines you have of your own.
