Wildix currently offers Per User subscription. It means that you can add as many users of each profile as you need and add more users whenever you need. You pay per user / per period of time. 

Here are the steps to activate a PBX:

  1. Choose the platform: Hardware, Virtual, Cloud

  2. Choose the recurrent payment cycle: Monthly / Yearly / 5 years / Lifetime (lifetime is not available for Cloud)

  3. Choose the number of users of each Profile: Basic / Essential / Business / Premium / Wizyconf Room / Wizywebinar / Service

Notes:

  • You first select the period of time and then the number of users, this means you cannot select different recurrent payment periods for different types of user profiles, e.g. if the recurrent period is 1 year, it means the users of all types (Basic, Business, Premium) are added for 1 year. You can increase the number of users any time (add more users of any type)

  • Starting from April 19 2022, only one PBX with active subscription plans is allowed per customer. Other PBXs of the same customer should belong to the same WMS Network and inherit the subscription plans from the main (server) PBX with active subscription. Otherwise, extra PBXs with active subscription should be moved under other customers

  • Starting from May 2022, Wizyconf Station is available as HWaaS only and Wizyconf Room subscription is added to the PBX with the Wizyconf Station purchase automatically. No need to buy the subscription

  • Subscription plans can be ordered via Wildix Partner Community. Documentation: How to Create Quote and Confirm Order in Salesforce Partner Community

Example: you need 10 users with basic phone services (fax machines, unattended phones, doorphones), 30 users with access to Legacy Collaboration and only 5 users with access to CDR-View. You activate 10 PBX-BASIC users, 30 UC-ESSENTIAL users and 5 UC-PREMIUM users. At any moment, you can add more users of any type.

Details on each user profile: https://www.wildix.com/licensing/.

Per User subscription is available for any PBX type:

  • Hardware

  • Virtual

  • Cloud
