When you buy the latest version of Delphi, you also get access to earlier versions of Delphi at no extra charge. This is a cost-effective solution for development teams adding developers to support existing applications because you get the latest version plus access to the earlier versions that you need at no extra cost.

Named user licenses
- Each serial number that also requires an older version license must be registered to a unique Embarcadero Developer Network (EDN) account that is associated with the intended end user of the product.
- You must install and register your 12.3 serial number before you request the older version licenses.
- You must request your older version licenses within 180 days of your purchase of the 12.3 product.
- Your earlier version licenses will be tied to your user account and cannot be given away or sold. If your 12.3 license is an upgrade, you will not receive additional licenses for older versions that you already own.
Choose a link below to obtain earlier version licenses for your 12.3 Athens product:
- EMB_TEXT_PROFESSIONAL_OR_ENTERPRISE_EDI
- EMB_TEXT_ARCHITECT_EDITION
- If you purchased Network Named or Concurrent licenses, the older version licenses for versions 2007-11 Alexandria will be included as part of your network license. Each network license seat is a suite license that can be used to run one of the included versions at a time. You can find EMB_TEXT_PREVIOUS_VERSION_INSTALLER_KEY once you receive your purchased license. Versions 10.x-11 Alexandria do not require installer keys.
- Installers can be obtained from EMB_TEXT_REGISTERED_PRODUCTS_PORTAL
- Delphi 7 is not available as part of the network licenses but on request you can receive one Delphi 7 serial number per license purchased.
- The Delphi 7 licenses cannot be managed via the license server or used concurrently.
