FMS Licensing - Can I host it for my clients?

Hi everyone,

I'm looking at the licensing for FMIS 3, and I see this clause:

2.8.4.
Prohibited Use. Except as expressly authorized under this Agreement, Licensee is prohibited from: (a) using the Software on behalf of third parties; (b) renting, leasing, lending or granting other rights in the Software including rights on a membership, subscription or hosted basis; (c) providing use of the Software in a third party outsourcing facility or service, service bureau arrangement, or time sharing basis; (d) allowing any person who is not an Authorized User from using the Software; and (e) bundling or integrating the Software with other products and services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Interactive Server and Streaming Server only, Licensee is permitted to host the Software for use by persons other than Authorized Users.

Does this mean that I am not allowed to develop apps for my clients and host them on my server? Do I have to get each of them their own servers? Does anyone have any insight into this clause? Thank you!

    hrms. thats interesting. I honestly don't know but if you find out let me know. Maybe that explains why hosts out there still use FMS2 for hosting apps for their clients with.
