I do not believe those are sufficient for enterprise licenses, which must be provided separately.
- Xylakant 4y agoThey are sufficient for pro licenses, though, which are what they mention as the required baseline.
- jaywalk 4y agoThere's no requirement to purchase an enterprise license. Large companies just do that to save money.
- trelane 4y agoWait, they buy a second license to save money? How does that work and, more importantly, how can I convince lots of folks to buy my product twice to save money?!
- sumtechguy 4y agoI was looking at a quarter million for a few dozen machines and 2 AD servers and 4 SQL servers. Nearly on par with the cost of the hardware I was buying. Until some bright spark realized it was all testing/dev/qa for those machines, MSDN suddenly was way better cost wise. If all you are doing is testing/dev then MSDN is usually the choice you want (but grab your lawyer to dig into the terms on that one). But in a real env with no dev work, the licenses become a real pain and very costly, and per year recurring many times, and stack because each service type has time, or sometimes they combine. Not dealing with it at all is very tempting.
