1Password License and Terminal Server Questions

We have a single physician who uses 1Password by way of DropBox on his laptop. We are switching his office system out to a Thin Client and he would like to continue to use the product. This brings up a couple of questions.



1. Will 1Password work and remain secure when running on a Microsoft Terminal Server (2008 R2)?

2. Can it be launched from the users startup script and NOT as a service so it is not loading a single copy for every session on the server? And

3. Does your licensing model support one user and multiple PC's or would a separate license be required for the Terminal Server?

4. Are there any other issues around licensing when installing it on a Terminal Server that is used by 10 other people who don't use the prodcut?

    Welcome to the forums, Greg. 1Password is licensed per user, per platform [i]not per machine[/i]. So you only need one license of 1Password for Windows per user.



    I'll see if I can find out some more details about your other questions.

    Yes, but our extensions for Safari and Chrome might not work on Microsoft Terminal Server 2008. Our add-ons for Internet Explorer and Firefox are OK.

    2. Can it be launched from the users startup script and NOT as a service so it is not loading a single copy for every session on the server?

    No. Our advice is to simply execute our installer. Our (NT) service is lightweight and does not load for every user session.
