[Framers] Sharing Frame

With my current employer, I'm back working in Word because many engineers have to contribute to my hardware manuals and there simply isn't a budget for the server version of Frame (which costs $15,000 US these days and is truly overkill for my situation). 

However, the software team is quite small so I'm wondering if there is a way I could legally leverage Frame when working with that team. Using Frame's conditional text option to create at least 3 different software manuals around a large core of shared text would be a godsend. 

I know you can legally install Frame on 2 machines so long as only one machine is in use at a time. Has anyone ever tried this in order to share Frame with another writer? 

Or can you legally install a single seat copy of Frame on a server and have it work properly (with one user at a time)? 


If none of these options will work, maybe I'll have to see if I can make a business case for 2 single seats to use with the software team.
