Adobe licenser för samtidig bruk 

Adobe erbjuder TLP och CLP kunder inom segmentet Skola och forskning(EDU), egna "CONC" licenser eller "Concurrent" - på svenska "samtidigt bruk" licenser.

Vi har samlat följande information från Adobe om "CONC" licenserna:

  • Concurrency - The ability for more than one user to access an Adobe product at the same time, where the total number of concurrent users differs from the number of licenses ordered.
  • Concurrency - Program Members that signed an education CLP 4.0 agreement may order concurrent licenses for lab or administrative use of Adobe products. However, this option may be subject to additional fees, and the Program Member must maintain and use adequate verification or monitoring software to manage the concurrency.  Concurrency is not available to the commercial or government market segments except with FrameMaker UNIX shared.
  • TLP & CLP 4.0,  Concurrency available? - Yes, for lab or administrative use. The customer must maintain and use adequate verification or monitoring software to manage the concurrency.
  • Concurrency står bland annat i AOO 4.0 licensing guide(http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/openoptions/pdfs/clp_guide.pdf)

 

  • Home and laptop use:
  • Software licensed at the office may be used at home providing two people are not using the software at the same time, as described in the product EULA.
  • Note that home use is not permitted with ELP in Europe, SLP, or SLP Education programs.
  • Software licensed for office use may be used on a laptop provided two people are not using the software at the same time, where this is detailed in the product EULA.

Detta betyder att det kan bli svårt att köra "concurrent use" på hemma maskiner!

Det påpekas att det från utgångsläget inte är "hemma bruk" för licenser köpt som "skollicenser".
Dessutom förväntar Adobe att man med CONC-licenser skall ha möjligheten till att kunna mäta "max antal brukare" – och detta är omätbart om någon nyttjar produkten hemma, och andra på kontoret samtidig.
