Understanding Phone Platform Features and Licenses

As of release 4.0.0, UC software supports the Productivity Suite, which includes features such

as a Corporate Directory, Visual Conference Management, USB Call Recording, Polycom

Desktop Connector, and Exchange Calendar. Upgrading to the current UC software

automatically enables the Productivity Suite; no license is required. The Voice Quality

Monitoring (VQMon) feature will continue to be a licensed and paid product.

For customers using versions of Polycom UC software prior to 4.0.0, Polycom will provide a site

license for all features in the Productivity Suite, except the VQMon feature. To get this license,

go to Download a Non VQMon SITE License from Polycom Voice Applications

. You can also

find a trial license for the VQMon feature which enables you access to the feature for a limited

time.

UC software 4.0.4 supports a range of features that are available on the SoundPoint IP phones.

You can refer to Table 3: SoundPoint IP Features and Licenses or Table 4: SoundStation and

VVX Series Features and Licenses to find out whether, in UC Software 4.0.4, a phone does not

support a feature (No), a phone supports a feature without a license (Yes), or the phone

requires a Feature License to support a feature.
