This Floating Software License agreement is designed for use in Pakistan when organizations need to implement flexible software licensing arrangements that allow sharing of licenses among multiple users through network-based authentication. The document is particularly suitable for enterprise-scale software deployments where concurrent user access needs to be managed efficiently and cost-effectively. It incorporates requirements from Pakistani electronic transaction laws, copyright regulations, and contract law, while addressing technical aspects such as license server configuration, usage monitoring, and authentication mechanisms. The agreement includes comprehensive terms for maintenance, support, and usage restrictions, making it suitable for both domestic and international software providers operating in Pakistan. This type of agreement is typically used when organizations want to optimize software license costs by purchasing fewer licenses than the total number of potential users, based on expected concurrent usage patterns.
