Late last year we purchased 50 new Office 2007 Professional licenses for the company - just to bring us up to legality.
Actually they were Office 2003 licenses with SA.
Anyway, when we purchased them the company who sold us the licenses this time around told us about a scheme which we thought would be rather useful.
Basically because of the 50 license purchase, we could allow 50 users within the company to run the same level of Office 2007 at home under the same license agreement.
They would need to register at MS and pay a nominal charge for media.
MS would then send them the media for Office 2007 and an installation key.
People within our company could do this until 50 people had registered.
Those 50 people would also be licensed directly from MS - so if any of them decided to be rather bad and distribute keys etc then MS would go after them, not us.
So we didn't have to worry about keeping track of things etc.
I cannot however for the life of me remember the name of this scheme so I cannot start offering it to users within the company.
Does anybody happen to know the name of this scheme and/or have a link to further information so I can roll this out to our users?
