Windows 7 family differs

I had business relationships with a software provider who insists on the fact that their product is not supported for Windows 7 Home - it's for Windows 7 Professional.  Why would it be?

Home Edition is different from the professional edition (outside the license)?  If so, how and why?

Win 7 home and pro are different.  You can compare their features here
