Obtaining a Commercial License
When you install the ITM On-Prem (ObserveIT) server-side components using the ITM On-Prem (ObserveIT) Custom Installation, your product will not be licensed. The first time that you access the Web Management Console, you will need to install a license to be able to use the product.
Contact your Proofpoint representative for more details about:
-
Using a free time-limited temporary license
-
Using a full paid license
Using a Full Paid License (Enterprise version)
This license is generated at the customer's request byProofpoint ITM On-Prem support staff, and represents the number of Agents (monitored servers) that were purchased by the client.
If you are installing ITM On-Prem for a client that has not yet received the full paid license, you can temporarily use the free time-limited license, and later upgrade the license to the paid one.
Some full paid licenses have a time limit. If a license has a time limit, a notification is displayed at the top of the screen in the Web Console showing the number of days left till the expiration date, and a hyperlink to contact the ITM On-Prem (ObserveIT) representative in order to request a license extension. If a time-limited license is due to expire in less than 30 days, the message will appear highlighted in the Web Console.
To obtain and activate a Commercial License, see Activating the ITM On-Prem License.
