Hello we are a small Company with more location. We have location in RO, US, CN;DE. We use LabView Professional, Real Time, FPGA and Vision Products. We have nearly 15 Programmers but nobody works full time with programming. We make software only for us. Actuall we have a EA License but is still very expensive. One of the most points are the cost for debug for every year. We have many systems with different Hardware and Labview versions which we must sometimes debug but mostly for a short time. Our NI contact person told us it is not possible to have floating debug license ! Has everyone experiance with license ? If it is a cheaper way to debug possible ?

We also use LabVIEW/TestStand for ~30 developers in our company - and we do use floating debug licenses:

There are debug licenses dedicated to computers ("Computerbasiert"), and there are floating licenses ("Parallel pro Computer") available (in our EA agreement). Additionally we use user-account based licenses ("Benutzerbasiert")…

Thanks for the answer. For DIADEM it was still possible to buy floating license. The developer it will be also possible but it counts five times more. Only for debugging he told us it is not possible to buy floating. That where the perfect solution for us.
