I’d like to have the option. Collab EA Suite + ? Collab EA Suite Premium? Collab EA Suite Cool? 😉
No end of possibility of names.

I mean I’d imagine the demand is just not there. Lots of places may not have contact centers and/or may need UCCE as well. It doesn’t make sense for a non core telephony feature to be included. It’s also almost always going to be at a much lesser seat count than the overall company seat count.

Ok. Thanks for confirming. Not sure why they have yet to move that into the suite. ☹

Its still a separate pricing for UCCX. Collab is for call manager, unity, CER, SRST, CUAC and some other stuff with the option to add on Webex calling

So, you found that UCCx is now included in the Collab EA suite? Or are you still being priced separately for UCCx?

Yes, I’m going through the analysis right now to present benefit of going EA instead of yearly Smartnet for our Call Manager and UCCX licensing and the cost difference makes it really hard to say no when you look at the numbers over 3 or 5 year period

After all that I want to ask...
Is UCCx included in EA yet? Or still separate.

A port is a port.
Chat/Email and Advanced Outbound Campaigns (predictive/progressive dialing) require Flex Premium so agents doing those functions would need premium.

Why did they have to borrow the same names for the licensing levels? It's like when Cisco decided to call UCCX CAD+Finesse Mixed mode, while on CUCM mixed mode already meant secure communications. Anyway.
Ok, so, a port is a port in Flex? There is no concept of a premium port or a standard port then? Any kind of inbound port can do any kind of feature? The only licensing levels are for Agent/Supervisor capabilities?

You need to dissociate flex std/prem from L-CCX std/pre. Every feature on flex is the equivalent of the L-CCX premium level from a capabilities standpoint.
Does that make sense?

My man! Always coming through! So, the Supervisor one is true but the admin one is bogus, right? I mean, about the Premium requirement for each.
So, what is still confusing to me is, in the past, the Premium seat also got you 2 premium IVR ports. Does a standard flex seat get you 2 standard ivr ports? Thus, a mized std/pre felx deal is going to net you a mixed std/pre port solution? How does that work?

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?

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?
