Ins licensing based on bandwidth expensive?
We think the answer to this is no. Coyote is usually far less expensive than other products when you consider all of the costs involved. Coyote is completely self-contained. With other solutions, you need to license additional web servers products, often purchase external server hardware, and license MV user seats for web applications. This can make a solution with Coyote as little as 10% of other solutions. Another way of looking at it is that cost of the Coyote software license is about the same as two months of internet connection costs. This means that the overall cost of running a public web site is dominated by the cost of your connection and not by the cost of software. As an example, compare Coyote with Pick Systems Flash Connect. With Flash connect, you pay $1000 plus $350-$400 (a Pick user license) for each “user” that is running a web application. If you need to support 100 concurrent users on a T-1 line, this would cost $36,000 for Flash Connect versus $3995 for Coyote.
