Licensing
Site Licensing enables you to purchase additional copies of software
like Microsoft Office for the office or lab at substantial discounts.You
simply have to already own a full version of program and have the
CD-ROM for the program you desire to procure a site license for.
Site licensing assigns you another Key Code or PIN Number for the
software. You will use your original CD-ROM to install the software
and enter the Key Code when prompted. You save a bundle by not having
to buy the complete package again and you are completely legal as
well.
How It Works: All
software products sold are made up of 3 component parts:
- Media - the software application itself.
- Product documentation.
- A software licence for multiple users.
You can select any combination of the above to best suit your needs.
For example: one set of media, four document sets, and ten licences.
Additional licences, media or documentation can be obtained quickly
and easily at a later date. Licences ordered must be equal or be
greater than the number of media or manuals being ordered.
Customer Eligibility: You
are eligible to purchase this program if you are a Educational establishment
(for teaching or educational research purpose only) like the U of
A.
Concurrency: Often
the number of users who have access to a product and the number of
users who use it are not equal. Provided that the number of users
who are using the software at one time does not exceed the number
of licenses, the customer can license exactly the number of users
who will be accessing it at one time. This is commonly referred to
as concurrency.
Advantages:
- Significant cost savings.
- Easy access to the latest technology.
- Simple budgeting and administration, with a single annual payment.
- Standardization of software in the office and lab and therefore
lowest cost of ownership.
- Peace of mind knowing that all the software is legal and licensed.
