Also fuck your company for not buying the license.
It’s worse than that. It was bought, as I’ve found out, but never applied. Naturally - lost to the whims of time.
It should be a mandatory purchase.
Yes, but my issue is with this requiring the license in the first place. It’s just so petty and pathetic. There’s no technical barrier getting in the way - it’s the bloody suits looking for a payday.
I completely agree that there shouldn’t be all sorts of a la carte expenses and licenses. It’s horrible for the sake of organization, trickle expenses for “renewals” because it turns into a subscription eventually, etc.
At the same time it’s the reality and has been for a long time.
It isn’t just hp that plays this game, but still - fuck hpe.
