Description

Services Beyond Print: Targeting the European Manufacturing Sector


This IDC Market Perspective addresses the behaviors and priorities of companies within the European manufacturing industry. The goal is to help print service vendors assess whether their broader services portfolios are aligned — or could be developed to align — with the manufacturing industry's requirements and thereby provide a significant business opportunity."While there are many global trends in manufacturing, there are distinct differences in requirements by manufacturing sub-sectors. While the European manufacturing sector wants more than just print services to support their shift to a digital business model, any print service provider targeting manufacturers needs to have deep insight into the relevant sub-sectors. They will need to advocate the value of deploying secure technology-enabled solutions that respond to manufacturers' need for greater resilience and agility, provide enhanced intelligence to help drive business growth, and significantly contribute to their ability to pursue new opportunities." — Jacqui Hendriks, associate research director, European Print Vendor Transformation Strategies, IDC

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.
