IDC MaturityScape: Future of Connectedness 1.0

This IDC study enables an organization to assess the competency and maturity of its current state of connectivity and the ability to support data-driven initiatives across the enterprise. This IDC study is written to help CIOs and line-of-business (LOB) executives take actions today that will deliver future guidance required by evolving connectivity strategies and focusing business goals on driving agility across all key areas of the organization."Successful digital enterprises see connectivity as a strategic asset that provides a secure, scalable, and flexible foundation enabling people, processes, applications, and things to stay connected and ensure that the digital experience is rich, real time, and reliable," says Paul Hughes, research director for IDC's Future of Connectedness Agenda program. "The IDC MaturityScape for the connectivity maturity operating model provides a framework for identifying the stages, critical measures, outcomes, and actions required for organizations to effectively evolve their connectivity strategy to provide their business with highly resilient, flexible, and secure connectivity to support positive business outcomes."

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.
