  Picture a semi-governmental company

  Also, relying on 30-day license that has to be refreshed on monthly basis, now with personal emails, is a sev1 waiting to happen. Very unmaintainable

    Easy, just have two of your staff do alternate 24/7 shifts, renewing just in time. As long as this costs less than the price of licencing the proper way, still a “win”.

      And as usual, that is not where the costs should be cut. Even with the current relegation of platform (I mean running mission-critical machines in cloud). I wouldn’t trust that company to be their customer if I knew they operate like that

        Hahaha, I suggest you never look behind the scenes at an F500 then. This would be one of the more sane things to happen in that environment.
