User License Agreement
Single
User / Single Seat Licenses
A Single User Single Seat (SUSS) License is a license for
one user at at time on a designated machine. These licenses
also include a Personal Use license at no additional charge
on Absoft branded products. This allows the registered user
to install the software
license(s) on a personal home machine as well as their office
machine as long as the two machines are not being used at
the same time.
Floating
Network Multi User Licenses - Single Operating System Environments
Floating
Network licenses allow users to :
a). Install software on a single machine which is accessed by
multiple users on the same local network
b). Licenses can be used concurrently by no more than the number
of authorized users
Subscription Licenses - Single Operating System
Environments
An
Absoft Subscription License is a form of Single User license
where the software is licensed for a specific term (typically
12 months) rather than on a perpetual basis. Subscription Licenses
for the product expire at the end of the term and may be renewed
for additional terms. All applications created with Subscription
Licenses are perpetual. Absoft currently offers Subscription
Licenses only with its Express Fortran Compilers. All other
Absoft licenses are perpetual.
MaxFlex™
- New Maximum Flexibility Software Licensing
NEW
- MaxFlex™ - The Mix and Match Software License Manager from Absoft
Corporation provides users with cost savings and maximum licensing
flexibility. Absoft continues to lead the market with MaxFlex
as an industry first allowing customers to mix and match licenses
for multiple environments.
Based on customer demand, Absoft has developed a new MaxFlex™ Licensing
Manager and licensing policy which allows customers to freely
mix and match Absoft compiler licenses for Windows, Macintosh
and Linux at their own convenience without having to re-license
from Absoft. For customers using multiple operating systems, MaxFlex
affords significant savings through bundle pricing (multiple platforms)
and accesses the different compilers licenses, as the customer
requires. Customers ordering MaxFlex™ Network licenses (for local
networks) select the platforms they want then mix and match license
usage for Absoft products across all platforms in a heterogeneous
local environment.
At any point, under MaxFlex™ licensing, this same customer could
change the mix, for example by using one (1) Fortran compiler
on Linux, and two (2) Fortran compilers on Macintosh, or any other
combination totaling no more than three (3) licenses total. Similarly,
customers migrating from 32-bit to 64-bit Linux might initially
use one (1) 64-bit Linux license and two (2) 32-bit licenses,
then later use (2) 64-bit licenses and one (1) 32-bit license
as their migration to a 64-bit environment progresses.
No other company offers this type of multi-platform cost-saving
flexible licensing alternative!
