Re: User based pricing -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.

IBM is also not clear on this subject. I just went through a fairly long discussion with
the support folks on this very subject. The final statement in the conversation was
something like this: "So... A user is anybody who has a profile ??? ...

IBM responds...."Yes".

I can tell you my customer with a 525 starting getting these messages on day one.
He has "around" 30 users, we bought 30 users. When I loaded the profiles, I
ended up with around 55 profiles including 20 who no longer worked for the
company and had been disabled.

Until I deleted those folks, my "user" count in the wrklicinf showed 50 users.

It also takes a few minutes for the user count to readjust.

Multiple sessions by same person do not "appear" to change the count.

Your mileage could vary....

I have a customer who is looking at buying a new i515 and we are fuzzy on what the definition of a user is. I can't find any info on IBM's website and I want the make sure the salesman is telling us correctly, that a user profile can sign on to multiple session and it still only counts as one.

Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.
