Distribute CR 2008 Runtime License

40 Views

We have web solutions developed from VS2008 using its embedded CR2008 Basic Runtime Engine for reporting purpose. If we want to distribute our web solution EXTERNALLY as SERVER APPLICATION, what license we have to buy for EACH server application deployment.

Now, it seems to me that purchasing a licensed copy of VS2008 per each server application deployment solves the license and CR version. However, our end-users never do development on VS2008. They never need CR Designer to design report. It seems to me that purchase a licensed copy of VS2008 is not cost effective. Any alternative ?

If we purchase the CR Runtime Server License, does that mean we can distribute as many different SERVER APPLICAIONS as we want. Will the CR Runtime Server License cover VS2010 ?
