servers that are acquired on a regular basis.
Desire simple software licensing: one key per product for all
licenses subsequently purchased over
time.
Want the least amount of physical deliverables: there are no deliverables associated with the
tracking licenses.
Want to add Insight software licenses as line items to standard ProLiant configurations purchased
re
gularly from HP or HP partners. Want to add Insight software to existing ProLiant sales contracts
with HP.
