Document background
The Enterprise License Agreement serves as the primary contractual framework for software licensing arrangements between vendors and enterprise customers in Switzerland. It is typically used when an organization needs to license software for use across its business operations, potentially including multiple entities or affiliates. The agreement covers critical aspects such as license scope, deployment rights, usage restrictions, maintenance services, and compliance requirements. Under Swiss law, particular attention is paid to warranty provisions, liability limitations, and data protection obligations. This document is essential for large-scale software implementations and should be customized based on factors such as deployment model (on-premise vs. cloud), user base, and specific industry requirements. The agreement must comply with the Swiss Code of Obligations and related regulations while protecting both parties' interests.
