Is your Windows Licensing right for you?

2 Types of Windows License
1. OEM - industry acronym for Original Equipment Manufacturer.
2. Open license

OEM are shipped / pre-installed together with your hardware and they can only exist in that piece of hardware. Any transfer of that license to other machine for usage is considered ILLEGAL.

Eg.
Existing Motherboard died - requires buying new OEM license

When to use Open license?
With current virtualization and many enterprises going to cloud. It is more economical and cost saving to purchase open license.

Why COST SAVING?
- You are able to transfer the Windows License over to the virtual machine and de-commissioned the old physical one. Do not have to buy new license!

If you are interested to virtualized your machine, please email remoteIThelp@hotmail.com to find out more.
