You should buy as many licenses as a number of your developers who will need
to use Rose at the same time. Note the word "need", not "want". For example,
if all twenty need to use Rose at the same time, you need twenty (20)
licenses. If, however, only five (5) will be using Rose simultaneously, you
can get away with five (5).
To calculate your ROI (Return-On-Investment) just ask yourself the following
questions:
1) Are your human resources cheaper than the software tools? For example,
if your loaded (direct+overhead costs) person-hour are $100 and you have 10
developers waiting 1 hour per week, you have just wasted $1,000 in one week.
How long before the 'break-even" point?
2) Will your project experience any delays due to some developers waiting
for a license?
3) Will your developers experience significant frustrations if they can't
get to Rose when they need to?
I am sure, someone in this forum will be able to add to this list.
Regards,
Alex
