Microsoft Software Auditing Tips - Using student Software to run your business can be costly!

In this exciting episode of Vondran Legal Hour, Attorney Steve the Software Audit Attorney describes what a EULA is, and how those terms of a software licensing agreement need to be followed.  In other words, if software (Like Microsoft Office Suites) are desginated and limited to "Home and Student" uses (not commercial business activity), then exceeding the scope of the license could lead to a "software auidit" by the Software Alliance.  This can result in financial devastation to many small and mid sized companies.

For more help, visit our Audit Resources Supercenter (with blogs, podcasts, videos and more).  We believe it to be the best and most comprehenisve information website for companies dealing with compliance issues regarding end-user license agreements for companies like Microsoft, Autodesk, Siemens, Vero, CNC Mastercam, Solidworks and others.
