I am a new corona for c4d user and I'm quite impressed by it's simplicity and results. Thinking of buying a license for my freelance work, I have a PC in the office and another one at home. I don't use the 2 PCs at the same time ever. Does the FairSaaS - 1 WS + 3 NODES allow me to install and activate the 2 PCs in my arrangement?

Any help is highly appreciated.

The Corona workstation (WS) license is floating. I call it a floater myself just for laughs. What that means is that you can use it on any workstation you'd like as long as its the only one running - So basically you can't run two workstations with one license but you can freely transfer that one license with ease if all the other workstation aren't using Corona at the same time (unless they are Team Render slaves).

Also, you can't use a render node license as a workstation license so those guys need to be strictly in Team Render mode.

Yes, as long as you don't run Corona with C4D on the two PCs in parallel, you're fine. In fact, this is one of the advantages of our licensing model - the license is a "floating" license. You can read more on this page: https://corona-renderer.com/prices-licensing/fairsaas

Thank you so much for clearing that. That is perfectly reasonable licensing. P.S Top notch sense of humour ;)
