Software Licensing

[grinch]

Morning all

 

Advice needed pleaseeees

 

Currently my school is a Federation, Infants and Juniors each retaining it own DEFS number. Each schools has it's own software. Plans are afoot to amalgamate the schools and become a primary. I undertand that the school will be closed on xx date and a new school opened. Where do we stand as far as site licenses that have been bought for the schools. Are we okay to use them accross the new school? I suppose it is possible that each software company may have different ideas, don't really want to have to contact everyone, not had to deal with this before.

 

Has anyone gone through this process?

 

Any advice humbly received.

I'd imagine it would depend on the licensing arrangements you have. A site license you'd most likely need to get transferred to the new school site by contacting the supplier. Anything licensed per user or per computer would most likely just stick to the computer/user.
