  • Any end users with access to the LAS have the
    right to use the Programs (SilkTest, etc.) in
    accordance with terms of use

    though Licensee is obligated to ensure all use of
    Products comply with Standard License Agreement

LAS
  • Key Points

    the licensee
  • In addition to internal end users working on
    licensee premises, Company A is allowing access
    to the LAS by end users in 3rd Party
    organizations (staff augmentation)
  • LAS is not moving it stays within the
    licensees organizational boundaries
  • The use of the Software is still internal use
    only only for the benefit of Company A
    products Company A is legally responsible to
    control this
  • Allowed Use

Topic Updates and Upgrades
  • We have the X.Y.Z product release convention
  • X release major new functionality
  • Y release minor new functionality
  • Z release only bug fixes (guideline)
  • Updates Z releases and lower (Includes Service
    Packs, Hotfixes, Patches)

    only error corrections
  • Do not include Upgrades
  • Do not include separate Products
  • Upgrades Y and X releases
  • Subsequent releases of a Product containing new
    functionality, support of a new operating system,
    or support of a new application
  • Do not include separate Products
  • Maintenance INCLUDES the ability to obtain
    technical support, UPDATES, and UPGRADES

14
Topic License Checkouts
  • Licensee can temporarily move product licenses to
    a mobile platform and use it as a license
    server
  • Can be done by licensee with no need to contact
    Segue
  • Originally created to allow SilkTest users to
    write scripts while at home, offline from the
    company network
  • Potential for abuse by people checking out
    licenses to perform for service load testing
  • Continue to provide this capability but clearly
    identify terms of use internal use only, not to
    be used for Commercial service
  • If Commercial Use is desired, must originally
    purchase a Commercial Use license

15
What Does Segue Charge?
  • Pricing Standard vs. Term (incl. Annual
    Subscriptions)
  • See Excel spreadsheet
  • Commercial Use
  • Proposal Commercial Use price points are 150
    of Term and Subscription price points
