Companies in the outsourcing business need to pay special
attention to licensing for Big Brother. Clause 2
of our Better than Free license
makes it clear that if you're using Big
Brother for the purpose of directly generating revenue or in
support of activity that generates revenue, then
a commercial license is required.
In the case where you take over a site where Big Brother is already
installed, these previously installed
copies of Big Brother are considered grandfathered and as long as the
software is not modified or upgraded you don't need to purchase a
commercial license.
However, you will need to purchase commercial licenses for any
new or upgraded copies of Big Brother you install.
Finally, we can make arrangements to have the Big Brother license
transferrable to the client at the end of the outsourcing contract.
