Frequently Asked Questions
What is happening to Single Use and Concurrent Licences?
Esri is moving to a Named User based licence model. To help transition to this new model, universities will be provided with Concurrent Use Licences for ArcGIS Desktop for ALL 3 Years of this agreement. The number of Concurrent Use licences will match the named user allocation of the licence option. So universities on Option C will receive 500 concurrent use licences while Option A will receive 5000 concurrent use licences.
Concurrent Use licences will not be offered beyond 1st August 2020 so it is important to plan your institutions transition during this 3 year licence period.
Are Concurrent Use Licences available for ArcGIS Pro?
Yes. These have been added to the licence to aid the transition to ArcGIS Pro. This means you can provision the software across your open access labs in the same way you have provisioned ArcMap. However, we strongly encouraged to transition to the Named User Licence model.
What are Apps?
Esri refers to any user application as an app. So ArcMap, ArcGIS Pro and City Engine are Apps. The term app would also cover mobile apps such as Collector for ArcGIS and Survey 123.
Most apps (with the exception of ArcMap and CityEngine) will be accessed through a login. The user would have to have a Named User identity that is associated the universities.

What is a named user?
A named user is an identity given to a user by an organisation which grants them access to Esri’s apps.
Why do I need to be a named user?
Users need an identity in order to access apps such as ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Pro and mobile apps. The named user is explicitly associated with the organisation (the university) and gets access to applications for which the university is licenced.
What about Desktop applications?
Desktop applications such as ArcGIS Pro already require users to have a named user identity from an Organisation. This authentication will most likely be implemented in ArcMap and the name user model will replace Single Use and Concurrent Use licencing.
What are the advantages of the named user licence model?
The named user model has a number of advantages, including:
- Users get access to both desktop and web applications
- Named Users identities tie together desktop, web and mobile GIS applications through a cloud based GIS data storage provision which is built into ArcGIS Online
- Users are licenced rather than hardware so it is easier to allow staff and students to have Esri software on their personal computers
- Named User Identities can be tied to institutions single sign on system reducing administrative overheads
How do I add Named Users?
Named Users are managed through ArcGIS Online. If you are an admin you will be able to invite users either individually or in bulk through a CSV file. In addition, it is possible to enable Enterprise access to ArcGIS Online through setting up a link with your institutional login. A user will then automatically be given a Named User identity the first time they try to login to ArcGIS Online via the Enterprise Login option.
How do I set up Enterprise Login for ArcGIS Online?
More information on how to enable Enterprise Login with ArcGIS Online will follow in due course. However, you will find basic information here
How do I access software?
Software applications that install on your PC, such as ArcMap, ArcGIS Pro or CityEngine, and server applications should be downloaded through MyEsri.
What is a Departmental lab pack?
A Departmental Lab Pack is designed for a university or institution that does not have a Site Licence but needs a smaller set of ArcGIS licences. The Departmental Lab pack offers the basic applications such as Desktop and ArcGIS Online.
What is Administrative Use?
Administrative use is any use by the university that is not teaching or research and that would be to either run or promote the university. This could include estate management or deriving business intelligence from data that the university hold on its students.
How might a university use Esri software for Administrative Purposes?
There are many ways in which a university could apply Esri software for administrative purposes. These include:
- Smart facilities management
- BIM
- Analysing admissions and graduates
- Deriving business intelligence from university data
To discuss how your institution may be able to utilise Esri software for Administrative use, please contact highered@esriuk.com
Commercial Use?
The education licence does not cover commercial use. This means commercial training, consultancy, selling plugins or applications developed using esri software and anything that is a paid for service. If a university wants to explore any of these activities they should contact highered@esriuk.com and discuss a licence that would allow them to do so.
How would I replicate software as a service implemented with Concurrent Use Licences?
As the Named User Licence model licences the user and not the computer, it is possible to deploy any ArcGIS application which has a login on any university machine. For a user to be able to access the software application they must have a Named User identity.
Can I allow students to install software on their personal computers?
You can allow staff and students to install ArcGIS application which have a login on their laptops. For the staff member or student to be able to access the application they will require a named user identity.
In addition, 1 Year Student licences will be available for at least the 1st academic year of this agreement.
Can ArcGIS Applications which have login be used offline?
Yes they can. The administrator can enable offline access and set the maximum duration that off line access persists before a user is required to login with an internet connection.
What is ArcGIS Developer Subscription?
The ArcGIS Developer Subscription enables users to explore and develop on the ArcGIS Platform. This is ideal for developers in research teams or advanced GIS students who are customising applications through code and APIs.
