Licenses - What are licenses?

Licenses are a crucial aspect of PBX management. Here's what you need to know: 

1. Validator of User: A license serves as a validator that allows a user to access and use a PBX effectively. 

2. Different Levels: Licenses come in various levels, including basic and PLUS, offering different features and capabilities. 

3. Essential for PBX Use: Without a valid license, a PBX user cannot use the PBX or the associated softphone app correctly. 

4. Assignment and Re-Assignment: Licenses can be assigned and re-assigned to users as needed, providing flexibility in resource allocation. 

5. Order and Cancellation: You can order new licenses to scale according to your customer's requirements. Conversely, licenses can also be canceled when no longer needed. 

6. Cost Even without Assignment: It's important to note that licenses may incur charges even if they are not assigned to a PBX user. Be mindful to use licenses efficiently to avoid unnecessary costs. 

By understanding and effectively managing licenses, you can optimize your PBX system, ensure compliance, and control costs efficiently.
