named user licensing

I perform system administration duties on a classified windows workgroup.  I need to purchase a named user license for the Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2013 Composer.  However, I will only be the installer/administrator of the software and only one specific user will actually use the software.  The specific user does not and will never have any kind of admin rights on the computer.  I have been told by third party providers that we would need to purchase a 2 user floating license to accomplish this approach. Is there a way to buy one named user license to accomplish this task?

You have been misinformed. A single named-user license is fine for this, as long as that user is the only one who will be compiling using the product.

Hello Steve,

Thanks for the reply. So I will be able to install the software and administer it without being the named user? Also, what checks are performed that the named user is the one utilizing the software?

You won't have any problems doing this. We don't currently do any checks for named user licenses - it's called that to emphasize that it is for a single individual.
