Please keep in mind the following while using this software agreement:
Any computer owned by the University, regardless if the equipment has
a decal or not and regardless of location, is covered by the agreement. If a
sponsor purchased the computer and is loaning it to your department, the
computer is not covered.
Operating systems are only upgrade-able. Computers must have been
purchased with a Microsoft operating system to be eligible for OS upgrades
through this license.
You should use the volume license keys supplied by the licensing
website and not license keys you may have obtained by purchasing software
through the Microsoft Select license agreement.
You are responsible for keeping the volume license keys secure. Do not
distribute media and keys provided by this license to faculty, staff or
students.
Software can be obtained through download on the licensing website or
by purchasing media kits from the Select license (these media kits will work
fine with the license keys provided through the agreement).
The license includes the following software.
Microsoft Office (all versions) (Access, Outlook, Word, Powerpoint,
Publisher, and Excel).
Client Access Licenses (CALs) for Windows servers, Exchange,
SMS, and Share Point.
Microsoft Windows (all versions).
The license DOES NOT INCLUDE the following:
server software
SQL server CALs
FrontPage
Visio
other Microsoft software
Work at home (WAH) provisions to consider:
If you receive a paycheck from UF you are eligible for WAH
benefits of the license.
WAH benefits are for just that... working at home. Your
department should consider the ramifications of issuing
WAH software to non-exempt TEAMS / USPS staff.
It is our recommendation that you require employees using
WAH benefits to purchase WAH media kits through the MS
Select agreement. WAH media kits have license keys
similar to full packaged product that require registration
and single usage. This will protect the VLKs of the
agreement.
