Microsoft among software titans under spotlight for restrictive licensing
Campaign group the Coalition for Fair Software Licensing has launched in the US to tackle the"restrictive terms" and anticompetitive business practices that"lock-in" customers and"impedes" a move to the cloud.

These principles represent the solution that will end abusive licensing tactics in the cloud and ensure the continued growth, adoption, and diversification of cloud services," Triplette adds.
According to a poll of 250 plus C-suite execs, commissioned by the Coalition, 90 percent said licensing terms for software should be clearer; 88 percent want to able to bring their previously purchased software to the cloud; and 89 percent said they should be allowed to run on-premises wares in the cloud.
