The company I work for wants to, and has previously, decided to use one of thier purchased software licenses to have an employee install that software application on thier home computer. This is done with the intent of having the employee complete some work at home. For proper licensing, I have most assuredly confirmed that we have purchased the propoer number of licenses, and where needed purchased an additional license if one did not exist. We then give them the cd to load at home, which they return after install.
My question has to do with management of this process and with assuring that the employee does not copy the CD and/or pass it on to another.
Does anyone have a similar situation and if so how do you deal with it? I have contemplated some time of signed aggreement similar to a licnesing agreement that provides “I promise I will not pass it out, install on multiple PCs, and uninstall from my PC when instructed or forfeit my home and car if I do not comply”. Obviously, we would not go that far but if anyone has done this type of agreement, I would appreciate your thoughts as well.
