SimpleSync licensing is based on:
(1) Where the SimpleSync product is installed. Each installation must be identified in the license key by the hostname of the server running the SimpleSync software.
As of v4, each installation of SimpleSync contains a unique Serial Number, identified in Help About. This serial number may be specified instead of the Host Name.
(2) The number of directories which are synchronized. Supported directories include Microsoft AD/Ex2000, Exchange 5.5, Netscape iPlanet, Lotus Notes R5, Postini (dest only), Google (source only), NDS eDirector or an ODBC Data Source. Each different source/destination directory (identified by IP address) must be included in the license key.
A directory would be any directory that is synchronized by SimpleSync. An example would be an Active Directory Forest or an Exchange Organization. An Exchange site that is not replicated by Exchange within an Organization can be synced and would also be counted as a directory source. This could happen in a large operation where replication is not used due to bandwidth or message traffic and SimpleSync is used to synchronize one or more sites.
ODBC Data Sources are licensed by the name of the data source in your license key.
CSV is licensed by use of a 'CSV' tag in your license key.
Postini is licensed by use of a 'Postini' tag in your license key.
Google is licensed by use of a 'Google' tag in your license key.
All other directory types are licensed by the IP of the target directory server.
(3) If running v3.x we also need to know the SimpleSync install Path (c:\SimpleSync-v3)
Maintenance Licensing:
A current Maintenance License entitles a client to SimpleSync Technical Support (phone and email, 9-5 EST M-F) as well as product upgrades as they become available.
The first year of maintenance licensing is included in the initial purchase.
Maintenance licensing can be renewed yearly for a fee of 15% of the original purchase price. |
