In light of the COVID-19 crisis, Wordfast has amended its end-user license agreement (EULA) so that in-house translators who need work remotely can install Wordfast solutions on their home computers at no additional cost. Please see the EULA for details: https://www.wordfast.com/agreement

Thanks John! This is something that will prove very useful in this situation!

Other information that may prove useful for those not already aware:
All-year round and for many years, Wordfast provides free licenses for 2 types of organizations:
_Humanitarian
_Educational

If you are part of a humanitarian organization, you can check this page: https://wordfast.com/gratuity
Please pay close attention to the definition of humanitarian at the bottom of the page: “NGOs and Humanitarian Organizations: note that gratuity does not apply to all "non-profit organizations" (like associations, religious or cultural concerns, local government, etc.) but specifically to humanitarian NGOs, duly registered as such.”
If you’re within that definition of NGO, there’s a link to contact at the bottom “write to us”

All Universities can also apply, to Wordfast Academic program. This program allows students to have licenses for their laptops and thus work from home. This is available all-year round but may make even more sense now. Check this page for further information:
https://wordfast.com/clients_education
These tools make for collaborative work and teaching through Wordfast Server, Wordfast Anywhere (free) etc.
If your University needs it, teachers or university representatives can contact. If you’re a student, do not contact directly, please approach your teacher to contact, clicking the “contact us” link.

For connecting Wordfast Pro 5 to remote TMs and glossaries and share them for free see this video: https://youtu.be/S7QCHNpRtKo
For connecting Wordfast Pro 3 to remote TMs and glossaries and share them for free see this video:
https://youtu.be/QVOMOYfR2ws

Of course, there is also Wordfast Anywhere, the free online collaborative tool allowing to share TMs, glossaries and even have different people working on the same file simultaneously.

So these are a few more options to keep working and learning without undue risk exposure.
Keep safe!

My bests 😊
