[cisco-voip] UCCX Flex Licensing

[Matthew Loraditch]

A-FLEX-CC has Standard and Premium Licenses.

These are different from non flex licensing.

Standard is inbound agent licensing essentially

Premium is supervisor licensing,   email/chat agents, outbound campaign licensing.

2 CTI ports per agent/license.

Admin still works no specific license needed as long as admin isn’t also supervisor/agent, HA is included, outside of the 3 features above, it’s like perpetual premium with SQL, etc included.

See here for specifics:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/unified-communications/cisco-collaboration-flex-plan/datasheet-c78-741220.html Table 8.


License enforcement is only in UCCX 12.5. Older versions don’t know and you end up with Perpetual Premium with HA feature set but with a license that expires at the end of your contract term.

Suffice it to say if you don’t need 12.5 features you could ride the gravy train for a while.

Licensing is still concurrent users.

There are grace periods so if you need to test something you can make the admin a supervisor or something w/o breakage, just remember to remove later.

If your customer has on-prem premium, with perpetual trade-in credits you are close to the cost of SWSS and should probably try and get them to move.

But seriously, a premium license to administer the system?  Does this include the appadministrator account too?  Do you have first hand experience with it?

This was the information I heard as well, and the purchase quantities are based on feature utilization and concurrency.

Pretty sure when buying as A-Flex-CC that it always just gives you Premium licensing on the CCX side.  Had this cause an issue with a customer that was staying on Enhanced for the extra CTI ports for many years.

All,

Anyone already deal with this themselves?  I am reading/being told something I cannot swallow as the truth, because it seems so ridiculous.

I am being told that you need a Premium license to even login as a Supervisor at all.  Like, not for extra functionality (silent monitoring), but just as a basic license requirement to even sign in.

Also, I am being told a Premium license is required for Administrative users too.  Like, even the app admin account.  So what, completing a fresh install now requires a Premium license?

Are either of these true?  Can you confirm from your own tests that this is in fact how Flex works in UCCX on-prem?
