License Management

Horizon 8 offers several types of licenses.

• Perpetual license (available only for Horizon 8)
• Term license (available only for Horizon 8)
• Plus SaaS subscription license (available only for Horizon 8)
• Universal SaaS subscription license (available for both Horizon 8 and Horizon Cloud on Azure)

For more information on subscription license types, see Omnissa Customer Connect.

Note: The following considerations apply to perpetual licenses when you install or upgrade to Horizon 8 2406 or later:

• You must follow the on-screen prompt to consent to the license activation. If you do not provide consent, the license activation will not proceed and Horizon Console will be switched to restricted mode.
• For upgrade installations, a red banner notifies you that the Horizon Console has been updated and you must reactivate your perpetual license. Follow these instructions to reactivate the license.
