bon_clay Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Looking for some advice in regards to licensing for Remote Desktop. If I was going to enable remote desktop/remote apps for all our staff and students am I covered by the EES license or would I have to purchase a remote desktop cal and a device cal for each user? I would need to buy additional licenses for each individual piece of software (e.g Adobe, Serif) installed on a remote desktop session?
Sagima Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 We purchase CALs for the staff and an external connector for the kids. We phoned/emailed various companies for each piece of software we have available whether they are happy with us allowing access on remoteapp to the students/staff at home under our current licences and so far (with the exception of half a dozen programs) they have been. We don't offer Office to the students via remoteapp. 1
Homer Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Are you session or virtual desktop based Sagima? Trying to get my head around this licensing at the moment
Sagima Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 We use the webpage for windows 7 PCs, the remote desktop app for ios, android, osx and windows 8+ (although I imagine people use the web page for those windows devices sometimes too) We explained what we wanted to do to our ees reseller and they came back (about 3 weeks and a few calls later) and told us we needed the external connector for the students as they weren't employed by us and the cals for the staff as they were. We don't have them log into the server with remotedesktop directly
