In a nutshell, the main difference between Dotfuscator Community Edition and the other "professional" editions is that Community Edition will only really obfuscate and change your namespaces, method names, and other "public" accessible aspects of your classes. It won't delve into the functions themselves and obfuscate the "private" code within the function.
Also, the Community Edition doesn't do anything to obfuscate such things as control flow within your application, nor will it "combine" code from multiple assemblies into one assembly. These are features that are available within the "professional" paid-for versions.
Because dotfuscator.exe refers to the graphical user interface (GUI) in Dotfuscator 5 but refers to the command line interface (CLI) in Dotfuscator 6, be careful when updating build scripts shared across multiple machines.
"Microsoft is excited to include PreEmptive Solutions' Dotfuscator Community Edition in Visual Studio .NET. This tool contains technology that helps developers protect their intellectual property from decompilation or reverse engineering on the Microsoft .NET platform. For commercial and enterprise applications, the superior protection and size reduction provided by an upgrade to Preemptive's Dotfuscator professional version is well worth a look."
