Desktop licensing allows users to install and run OfficeReports on a single workstation. This license is tied to the workstation’s hardware and cannot shared with other users, and can only be moved to another machine after contacting us. This license is most suitable for mobile computers or single user/workstation setup.

Here are some of the benefits and limitation of standalone licenses:

Pros

Suitable when you need the software on a single workstation

Less expensive than a comparable network license

Cons

When hard drive fails, an admin fee must be paid to request a replacement license

Less cost effective when many users need to access the software

Software can be installed on any number of workstations. The OfficeReports license server keeps track of how many licenses are in use at one time. When an application using network licensing starts, it first checks to see if a network license is available to use. If so, a license is then checked out from the pool of licenses. When a user exits the application, or the license is idle for a period of time, the license gets checked back into the pool making it available to other users.

Here are some of the benefits and limitations of network licenses:

Pros

Licenses are available to all workstations maximizing software asset utilization

Less expensive than a comparable network license

Cost effective: less licenses are required when a company has many users

Cons

Not suitable for single user installations

More expensive than standalone licenses
