Run office from the network

[Andreas]

Hi

At my compnay we have started the process of looking over our licenses
for Office and so.

At the moment all the employees have Office (Excel, PowerPoint, Word)
installed at their own computer. But sometimes the need for Publisher,
Project or Access is needed. But we don't want to buy a license for
each employee because about 10% each year will use it and just a few
times.

So is there some way I can install Office on a server in the network
and then let the employees run it from there? Perhaps 2-3 license so
only 2-3 people can run it at the same time.

Please assist me
Andreas

Hi Andreas,

MS doesn't offer a concurrent user licensing model
for Office, and you can install locally or in a run
from server model. You can, however, install the apps needed
for a particular user(profile) by using either the standalone
apps or by using an edition of MS Office that includes
those apps. http://microsoft.com/office/ork
