Best practice: Upgrading multiple licenses from EASE 4 to EASE 5
This FAQ gives an overview of what should be taken into consideration when upgrading multiple EASE 4 licenses to EASE 5.
First considerations – Number of users
The first step is to determine how many users are likely to work in parallel with the software. This number determines the minimum number of EASE 5 licenses you should acquire.
