How is Active Administrator licensed?
Active Administrator is licensed by the total number of enabled user objects in the licensee’s Active Directory.
Can I use my license for a selected group of users, or for just part of the domain, or just one of my domains?
No. You must purchase one user license for every enabled user object in the licensee’s Active Directory domain where Active Administrator is used, regardless of the number of sites, domains or OUs.
What user license quantities are available?
Licenses can be bought in any quantity above the minimum of 50.
Can I move licenses from one server to another?
Licenses are not tied to particular domain controllers or member servers.
What happens if I exceed my license count?
