Needless to say, this will be a new revenue stream for Microstrategy as the BI Enterprise software maker is about to start chaging for required licenses:
Microstrategy Mobile pricing ranges from US$550 to $2,000 per user, according to a spokeswoman for the company.
As an enticement, Microstrategy is offering customers 25 perpetual licenses at no charge, with the hopes they will want to buy additional ones. The 25 licenses are not restricted in any way, according to the company.
Microstrategy anticipates that customers will end up creating internal “app factories” enabled by the vendor’s mobile framework, said Sanju Bansal, executive vice president and chief operating officer.
