It may be used where software is licensed on a concurrent user basis or a named user basis; it may also be used where software is licensed on the basis of a limited number of installations.

Sample Software Licence Contract

The software licence contract template does not include provisions for the licensing of source code to the customer. Nor does it include escrow provisions. If you need a licence covering source code and/or with escrow provisions, see our premium software license contract template.

The template refers to, but does not include, an end user licence agreement (EULA). You may therefore also need to consider our end user licence agreement template.

This template is unsuitable for licensing software to consumers (as opposed to businesses).
