  How Your Peers Are Responding To MS Licensing Terms
Time: 06:10 EST/11:10 GMT | News Source: TechWeb | Posted By: Alex Harris

Microsoft Corp.'s long awaited, controversial new enterprise software licensing terms take effect next week. Over the last couple weeks, we've gauged the plans of our readers with respect to the plans through an online poll. Generally speaking, the results are somewhat more favorable to Microsoft, with a higher percentage of companies getting on board than there were three months ago when we fielded a similar reader poll. Still, the highest percentage of enterprises are still reporting a fairly strong level of resistance to the new plans, which Microsoft recently said were helping boost its revenue in this difficult IT spending climate.

  • With 319 responses as of Friday morning, here are the results: 40 percent said they're definitely not upgrading (compared to 45 percent in April saying they definitely wouldn't upgrade)
  • 19 percent said they're unlikely to upgrade, compared to 29 percent in April
  • 19 percent haven't done anything yet, compared to 13 percent who were “unsure” in April
  • 8 percent said they've upgraded, compared with 6 percent who in April said they'd definitely upgrade
  • 8 percent said they're about to upgrade, compared with 5 percent who had said they were likely to upgrade
  • 6 percent fell into the “other” category, vs. 2 percent before.
