Step 1: Plan your deployment | Admin

If you are the P4 administrator, you need to deploy P4 Server and configure it for your team. The first step is to decide if you want to manage P4 or have it managed by someone else. Then, you can decide how and where to host P4.

For help making a decision, see the P4 deployment options flowchart.

P4 is free for up to five users and less than 20 workspaces. If you have a larger team, contact Perforce Sales to get additional licenses.
