Manage and Verify Your Licenses

MicroStrategy licenses are managed differently according to the license type that is purchased. Refer to your MicroStrategy contract and any accompanying contract documentation for descriptions of the different MicroStrategy license types.

MicroStrategy uses two main categories of licenses:

• Named User Licenses, in which the number of users with access to specific functionality are restricted
• CPU Licenses, in which the number and speed of the CPUs used by MicroStrategy server products are restricted

MicroStrategy License Manager can assist you in administering your MicroStrategy licenses. For information about License Manager, see Using License Manager.

When you obtain additional licenses from MicroStrategy, use License Manager to update your license information. For details, see Update Your License.
