QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS --------------------- Q. Are the single user media/documentation/license and a 10-user license still available? A. Yes. They remain unchanged. Q. Why is the price nondiscountable? A. High-Volume Packs already represent a substantial per-user discount (up to 58%) over the price of a single user license. Q. How are 100 and 500-user licenses configured on a network? A. A 100-user pack includes 10 10-user licenses. A 500-user pack includes 25 10-user licenses and 10 25-user licenses. Each 10-user and 25-user license must be installed on a single server. However, these licenses will be accessible to any machine located within the network domain of the license server. Q. Can you split each 10-user or 25-user license across different license servers? A. No. But additional 10-user or 25-user licenses can be added to the same license server thus increasing the number of authorized ShowMe users on that particular license server in increments of 10 or 25. Q. How can people on different license server domains use ShowMe? A. For 100 and 500-license customers, each license server domain with ShowMe users must be authorized for at least one 10-user or 25-user license.
