How is Enterprise Security Reporter licensed?

Enterprise Security Reporter is licensed by the number of servers on which you want to generate reports.

Do I need a license for every server on my network?

No. You only need a license for every server on which you want to generate reports. So, to produce a report covering 20 servers you must have 20 licenses.

Example: I have 400 servers on my network and I want to run security reports on 50 of them. You need 50 Enterprise Security Reporter licenses.

Can I move licenses from one server to another?

No. Licenses are effectively "named server" licenses, and can only be used on the server for which they were bought.

What happens if I exceed my license count?

The Discovery process will discover as many servers as you have licenses in each discovery job. However, you are still required to own a license for every server that you plan to examine using Enterprise Security Reporter, even if you only do not intend to run a discovery against all of them in one job.

Is an evaluation license available? What restrictions does it have?

Yes, a 30-day evaluation license is available from www.scriptlogic.com. The evaluation license restricts searches to 3 servers and 5000 "objects" (user accounts, files, shares, groups, etc...).

Can I extend my evaluation?

You can request an extension for an evaluation license, just contact us.

How do I find out how many licenses I've used?

The Discovery Administration Console shows how many servers you have selected to discover in the current discovery job in the text box labeled "Servers". However, you are required to purchase a license for all servers that Enterprise Security Reporter will be used to report on, even if they are not included in the current discovery job.

How do I install Enterprise Security Reporter on multiple workstations?

Every time you install Enterprise Security Reporter on a workstation you must re-apply the original license file supplied to you by ScriptLogic.
