I have seen workable ratio's around 8:1 and 10:1. It really depends on a lot of factors such as who users what and how often and what app is being used. Having a front of house app in front of Remedy also affects the ratio.

There are a number of dependences that interrelate. Where are the folks located? That is are they in a different time zone from most of your users? Will they be working different shifts than most of your users? What is the job function (occasional use vs help desk)? An example is if your main users are in the US and the staff being added is in China you can use floating. Even if they are helpdesk staff. If you have existing floating licenses you may not even need to add licenses as floating may be available. Misi has some nice tools to help with license allocation based on historic usage. If you haven't turned on Server Statistics, you should. The data will help you understand license utilization through out the day.10 Dave ------------------------- dave.shell...@tycoelectronics.com (Wireless) ----- Original Message ----- From: Mike Hocks [mailto:mike.ho...@state.mn.us] Sent: Tuesday, December 27, 2011 11:21 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG <arslist@ARSLIST.ORG> Subject: License Question Does anyone have a good formula on how to estimate the procurement of remedy licenses, fixed vs. float?
