Description

Enterprise Application Evolution: Changes, Changes, and More Changes


This IDC Perspective discusses the enterprise application evolution. Enterprise applications are changing daily. The business and consumer automation firestorm of digitizing the workstreams in the front and back offices is creating demand. In addition, the opportunity to completely update an organization, bringing it into the digital era, is pushing organizations to reconsider their current technology, rethink their technology strategies, and update their technology road maps, including investment plans.“The pace of technology innovation has increased exponentially, creating a perfect storm of investment confusion for organizations of all sizes. Investing in enterprise applications requires one to reconsider their short-term and long-term priorities, technology strategies, technology investment plans, return on investment, and expected benefits/outcomes over a time frame,” says Mickey North Rizza, group vice president of Enterprise Software. “Organizations want to invest but know their investments will be around for the long haul, enhancing their business value and competitiveness and enabling a bright future in the digital world. The enterprise application investment choices in the next few years will be very strategic and deliberate.”

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
