Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-und-domino-lizenzkostenreduzierung-in-der-welt-von-dlau/
DLAU und die Lizenzen nach dem CCB- und CCX-Modell sind für viele in der HCL-Community seit letztem Jahr ein heißes Thema. Als Notes- oder Domino-Kunde haben Sie vielleicht mit unerwartet hohen Benutzerzahlen und Lizenzgebühren zu kämpfen. Sie fragen sich vielleicht, wie diese neue Art der Lizenzierung funktioniert und welchen Nutzen sie Ihnen bringt. Vor allem wollen Sie sicherlich Ihr Budget einhalten und Kosten sparen, wo immer möglich. Das verstehen wir und wir möchten Ihnen dabei helfen!
Wir erklären Ihnen, wie Sie häufige Konfigurationsprobleme lösen können, die dazu führen können, dass mehr Benutzer gezählt werden als nötig, und wie Sie überflüssige oder ungenutzte Konten identifizieren und entfernen können, um Geld zu sparen. Es gibt auch einige Ansätze, die zu unnötigen Ausgaben führen können, z. B. wenn ein Personendokument anstelle eines Mail-Ins für geteilte Mailboxen verwendet wird. Wir zeigen Ihnen solche Fälle und deren Lösungen. Und natürlich erklären wir Ihnen das neue Lizenzmodell.
Nehmen Sie an diesem Webinar teil, bei dem HCL-Ambassador Marc Thomas und Gastredner Franz Walder Ihnen diese neue Welt näherbringen. Es vermittelt Ihnen die Tools und das Know-how, um den Überblick zu bewahren. Sie werden in der Lage sein, Ihre Kosten durch eine optimierte Domino-Konfiguration zu reduzieren und auch in Zukunft gering zu halten.
Diese Themen werden behandelt
- Reduzierung der Lizenzkosten durch Auffinden und Beheben von Fehlkonfigurationen und überflüssigen Konten
- Wie funktionieren CCB- und CCX-Lizenzen wirklich?
- Verstehen des DLAU-Tools und wie man es am besten nutzt
- Tipps für häufige Problembereiche, wie z. B. Team-Postfächer, Funktions-/Testbenutzer usw.

This presentation which sets out the interim results for Vodacom Group Limited for
the six months ended 30 September 2022 contains 'forward-looking statements‘,
which have not been reviewed or reported on by the Group’s auditors, with respect
to the Group’s financial condition, results of operations and businesses and certain
of the Group’s plans and objectives. In particular, such forward-looking statements
include statements relating to: the Group’s future performance; future capital
expenditures, acquisitions, divestitures, expenses, revenues, financial conditions,
dividend policy, and future prospects; business and management strategies relating
to the expansion and growth of the Group; the effects of regulation of the Group’s
businesses by governments in the countries in which it operates; the Group’s
expectations as to the launch and roll out dates for products, services or
technologies; expectations regarding the operating environment and market
conditions; growth in customers and usage; and the rate of dividend growth by the
Group.
Forward-looking statements are sometimes, but not always, identified by their use of
a date in the future or such words as “will”, “anticipates”, “aims”, “could”, “may”,
“should”, “expects”, “believes”, “intends”, “plans” or “targets” (including in their
negative form). By their nature, forward-looking statements are inherently
predictive, speculative and involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to
events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. There
are a number of factors that could cause actual results and developments to differ
materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
These factors include, but are not limited to, the following: changes in economic
or political conditions in markets served by operations of the Group; greater than
anticipated competitive activity; higher than expected costs or capital
expenditures; slower than expected customer growth and reduced customer
retention; changes in the spending patterns of new and existing customers; the
Group’s ability to expand its spectrum position or renew or obtain necessary
licences; the Group’s ability to achieve cost savings; the Group’s ability to execute
its strategy in fibre deployment, network expansion, new product and service roll-
outs, mobile data, Enterprise and broadband; changes in foreign exchange rates,
as well as changes in interest rates; the Group’s ability to realise benefits from
entering into partnerships or joint ventures and entering into service franchising
and brand licensing; unfavourable consequences to the Group of making and
integrating acquisitions or disposals; changes to the regulatory framework in
which the Group operates; the impact of legal or other proceedings; loss of
suppliers or disruption of supply chains; developments in the Group’s financial
condition, earnings and distributable funds and other factors that the Board takes
into account when determining levels of dividends; the Group’s ability to satisfy
working capital and other requirements; changes in statutory tax rates or profit
mix; and/or changes in tax legislation or final resolution of open tax issues.
All subsequent oral or written forward-looking statements attributable to the
Group or any member thereof or any persons acting on their behalf are expressly
qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above and below.
Vodacom expressly disclaims any liability in respect of the content of any forward
looking statement and also expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to
disseminate any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements
contained herein or to reflect any change in their expectations with regard
thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such
forward-looking statement is based.
