TRANSFERABLE LICENSES

 


WHERE DO TRANSFERABLE LICENSE SYSTEMS COME FROM?

This year, NetApp customers will lease more than $1 Billion in new hardware and
software. While there are many reasons customers lease equipment, one of the
primary reasons is to reduce the cost of the equipment over their contracted
period of use (the length of the lease). To be able to offer reduced prices, the
leasing companies must compute a residual (remaining) value for the equipment at
the end of the lease that they can subtract from the purchase price when they
compute the monthly payments. To retain more than parts value, NetApp provides
the leasing companies with the right to transfer the licenses one time to a new
customer. This way the systems can be sold as fully functional systems with
legal access to NetApp software.




WHICH LICENSES COME WITH THE SYSTEMS?

NetApp determines which licenses will transfer for a particular head unit serial
number. Some of this is dependent on the location of the filer. For example,
almost all filers come with NFS, CIFS, iSCSI, and/or Cluster licenses. Further,
filers that were sold in Europe often have SnapMirror or Nearstore/ASIS
transferable, whereas units sold in the US aren’t likely to have those protocols
transfer.

If the license you are looking for is not included with the system you are
interested in, we can obtain a quote from NetApp for that license at the time of
transfer.




WHY WOULD I PURCHASE AN OFF-LEASE SYSTEM?

Our off-lease systems offer the performance and features of current NetApp
systems at 40%-75% off current pricing.




WHO SUPPORTS THESE SYSTEMS?

Under the terms of the contract NetApp has with the leasing companies, NetApp
agrees to offer both software and hardware support for any system transferred to
a new owner. This support is based on their published End Of Life/End Of Support
dates, so the length of time a system may be supported by NetApp depends on the
type of system. Zerowait supports all systems sold through this program, and
continues to provide support long after NetApp’s EOS.




NETAPP SAYS THERE ARE NO TRANSFERABLE LICENSES!

NetApp sales people are commission based which creates a strong incentive for
them to sell you new hardware and to create doubts about the license
transferability program. We would be happy to send you copies of the transfer
letters written on NetApp letterhead as proof of the legitimacy of license
transferability. NetApp has been transferring their licenses for over 10 years
and NetApp's leasing partners have assured us that NetApp has committed to
growing its lease program so there will be a continuous supply of these
affordable NetApp licensed systems.
