11 Internet LicenseInternet-Lic
Similar to Concurrent License, the Internet License allows you to install Origin on any number of computers in your organization, and simultaneously run Origin on as many computers as the number of seats purchased.
The key difference is that with Internet License, you do not need to maintain a license server in your organization.
If you purchase n seats, you will be provided with n Product Keys. You can install and activate Origin on any PC using these product keys, thus allowing you to run Origin simultaneously on n PCs. The license will get automatically deactivated from the previous PC where the product key is used.
This license requires that your PCs are all connected to the internet. There is however an option to lock a Product Key to a particular PC for a period of 7 days at a time. This allows you the flexibility of having uninterrupted use of the license such as when traveling outside of your organization.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES!!!
This license type requires computer ALWAYS CONNECT TO THE INTERNET. Make sure your network has a stable internet connection with low traffic.
