   Let me guess: you sell the usual kind of nickel-and-dime-charge-for-   
   everything product, where the basic licence, expensive as it is, doesn’t   
   actually include many (if any) CALs for connecting actual clients. And   
   like SAP, you charge extra for every app the customer might develop that   
   connects to your server.
