Question

NOTE: This question relates to the SharePoint Essentials Toolkit product licensing.
We only need 2 or 3 user licenses, I only see the option for 1 or 5 on the website. Can we just purchase licenses for 2 or 3 users?

Answer

Standard License (Per Seat) Model:

• Yes. You can purchase licenses for only 2, 3 or 4 users.
• In order to license 2, 3 or 4 users, choose the option for 5 UserUsers

• For example: 5 Users and 10 Site Collections each, gives a total of 50 Site Collections, which can be split up among the 2, 3 or 4 users (example: If you have two users to license, this will be 25 Site Collections per each of the two users).
• Each user will have the same number of site collections licensed. Cognillo will round the number of Site Collections up for 'odd' number of Site Collections
  
  • For example: 5 Users 25 Site Collections each = 250 Total Site Collections available to be managed. This can be split for example among 3 users (250/3) = 83.33, we will round this up to 84 Site Collections that can be managed per user.
• NOTE: You can upgrade the number of Site Collections anytime by contacting us, you only pay the difference and it is pro-rated.

Enterprise Cloud License (Floating/Concurrent) Model:

• No, this license model cannot be used for less than 5 users and is recommended for 10 or more users, otherwise the Standard License above is more suitable and cost effective.
