FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Your question isn't listed? Give us a call or write to us – we answer personally.

Why is Informix licensing so complex?

IBM has fundamentally changed its licensing and pricing policy for Informix; with release xC7, existing models were replaced, adjusted or extended. Many companies find this hard to keep track of.

What are the risks of under-licensing?

A compliance audit can lead to back-licensing at list price and sanctions – in extreme cases, personal liability.

Do you also handle the technical implementation?

Yes. As an IBM Business Partner, we support you from the licence to the technical implementation.
