Licensing

What is changing?

Licensing

Maximo Application Suite brings together all the applications within the Maximo portfolio under a single license entitlement, with flexible consumption. This allows organizations to make use of any solution without additional purchases; no longer having to separate license entitlements, each application and user type will require a specific number of AppPoints.

AppPoints

What are they and how can you best use them?

AppPoints

AppPoints can be considered IBM's token licensing model. Rather than working in a fixed relationship between authorized users and license entitlements, these AppPoints give organizations the flexibility to adjust which applications are used and reduce compliance risk.

Benefits

How can IBM's new licensing model benefit you?

Benefits

The main benefit to IBM's new licensing model, is when you feel ready to access new functionality, there will be no additional license procurement required. Other benefits include a reduced risk and overheads in managing license compliance, license usage flexibility, and price protection for the term.
