Licensing

To use any Quality Management service you need a license (or license key) for it. The license not only unlocks the software, but contains the User licenses for use by those members of staff who need to:

Administer the Quality Management Client.
Have their calls processed by the Quality Management Client.
Use the Quality Management Client for viewing and reporting the corresponding call data.

When you purchase an Enghouse Interactive license, you specify the number of each type if User license you require.

Quality Management includes the following licenses:

Call Recording – per-user license for system-managed recording of calls based on settings in Call Recording Profiles.
Concurrent Call Recording – per-seat license for system-managed recording of calls based on settings in Call Recording Profiles.
On-Demand Call Recording – per-user license for manual recording of calls not based on any Call Recording Profile.
Desktop Utility – per-user license that allows use of the QMS Desktop Utility by the user to start, stop, and pause call recordings, without having to log into the QMS Client.
Screen Recording – per-user license for system-managed recording of either full user desktops or specific desktop applications, based on Screen Recording Profiles. A Call Recording license is required for each Screen Recording license.
Concurrent Screen Recording – per-seat license for system-managed recording of either full user desktops or specific desktop applications, based on Screen Recording Profiles. A Concurrent Call Recording license is required for each Concurrent Screen Recording license.
Agent Evaluation– per-user license allowing users to be evaluated, and allowing managers to create evaluations.
Supervisor – per-user license granting a user access to log into the QMS Client and perform whatever functions are allowed through the user’s Security Profile, but does not allow the user to have calls recorded.
Voice Analytics Realtime per-user license granting a user access to the live streaming VocalCoach Application. This license also functions as a “base” license where the user can have the license without requiring any other licenses
Voice Analytics Batch per-user license granting a user access VocalCoach’s Batch Speech Processing Application. This license has a pre-requisite of a call recording license: Either Call Recording, Concurrent Call Recording, On-Demand Call Recording, or Voice Analytics Realtime.

The Quality Management functions controlled by each license are unavailable (not displayed in the Quality Management Client UI) until the license is installed.

A Quality Management license works only on the server for which it is issued. Either Enghouse Interactive or your reseller will generate a license key for you based on the Server Token that you email them.

If QMS is to be configured in a High Availability environment, there will be two Server Tokens that will need to be sent to Enghouse Interactive or your reseller. Be sure to indicate which Token is Secondary.

If you wish to try components of the Quality Management Suite before purchasing, then you can be issued an Evaluation License, which lets you use the package free of charge until a specified date.

Most Users opt for a perpetual license, which never expires. If you prefer, you can also purchase subscription Licenses, which offer the functionality of perpetual licenses and include access to technical support and updates, but which are time-limited and need to be renewed.
