MS Office 2013 Licence Management
-
My company are looking into a volume licence as a long term solution, but in the meantime we have over 50 installs of Office 2013. With the online listing of installs not showing the actual installed key, and not related in anyway to the key entered when the install was done, they have no idea which ones belong to which machine. Has anyone else come across this and found a solution?

Binging is like googling, it just feels dirtier. Please take your VB.NET out of our nice case sensitive forum. Astonish us. Be exceptional. (Pete O'Hanlon)
BTW, in software, hope and pray is not a viable strategy. (Luc Pattyn) -

BTW, in software, hope and pray is not a viable strategy. (Luc Pattyn)Until such time as software companies develop a workng solution to monitor installed software and report on same, many companies use the tried-and-true method: Generate a piece of paper showing the purchase agreement for the installed software and file it in a folder for the affected computer. Archaic? Yes. Workable. Also yes. Auditable. Again yes. Tim
