Thomson Innovation offers two subscription levels to accommodate the needs of different types of users.
The Professional level provides full functionality of all features in Thomson Innovation.
The Express level provides a simplified interface with more limited features and functionality.
Subscription level does not imply access to, or restriction from, any of the content on Thomson Innovation. Content access/restriction is part of the initial contract and not a function of the subscription level.
Whether you have a Professional or Express subscription, you can still customize your working environment using the options you find in Preferences (in the left navigation panel).
The following table shows the high-level differences between Express and Professional.
