They define how data protection is enabled across different environments and workloads and are assigned based on the type and number of protected resources. Depending on the deployment scenario, licenses cover physical endpoints, servers, virtual machines, SaaS platforms, and repositories, ensuring that each protected element is properly accounted for within the licensing model. {% hint style="info" %} To get a license, please contact one of our sales partners or email us directly at . {% endhint %} *** ## Pricing Use the [request form](https://xopero.com/xopero-one-pricing/) on the **Xopero ONE** website, and one of our representatives will contact you with information on available offers and pricing. {% hint style="info" %} To get a tailored offer for your business, please email . {% endhint %} *** ## License types Below you can find all license types available in **Xopero ONE**, categorized by protected resource type. {% hint style="info" %} For information about **Xopero Unified Protection** (**XUP**) licensing model, please refer to [this article](/xopero-one-en/xopero-unified-protection/licensing.md). {% endhint %} ### Workstations & servers 1. **Endpoint Agent** — licenses for securing physical endpoints running **Windows**, **Linux**, or **macOS**. One license is required per endpoint. 2. **Server Agent** — licenses for securing servers (**Windows** and **Linux**), databases (**Oracle**, **MySQL**, **Microsoft SQL Server**, **PostgreSQL**, etc.), and **NAS** devices. One license is required per protected resource. ### Virtual machines 1. **Virtual Agent per VM** — licenses for securing virtual machines based on the number of VMs. It enables to secure systems directly from within the guest OS. {% hint style="success" %} If you need to secure other virtualization platforms not natively supported by **Xopero ONE** (such as **Proxmox**, **Xen**, **KVM**, or **Nutanix**), you can still protect virtual machines directly from within the guest OS. {% endhint %} 2. **VMware per socket** — licenses for securing **VMware** environments based on the number of CPU sockets. This licensing model allows backup of unlimited number of virtual machines from the host level. All CPU sockets are counted, regardless of whether they are populated; therefore, both occupied and unoccupied sockets must be included in the total count. {% hint style="warning" %} If your environment is clustered, a license is required for each individual host, per socket. {% endhint %} 2. **Hyper-V per socket** — licenses for securing **Hyper-V** environments based on the number of CPU sockets. This licensing model allows backup of unlimited number of virtual machines from the host level. All CPU sockets are counted, regardless of whether they are populated; therefore, both occupied and unoccupied sockets must be included in the total count. {% hint style="warning" %} If your environment is clustered, a license is required for each individual host, per socket. {% endhint %} ### Microsoft 365 1. **Microsoft 365** — licenses for protecting **Microsoft Exchange** data (including individual mailboxes, calendars, contacts) and **OneDrive**, assigned based on the number of **Microsoft 365** user accounts. 2. **Microsoft 365 PRO** — licenses for protecting **Microsoft Exchange** data (including individual mailboxes, shared mailboxes, calendars, contacts), **OneDrive**, and **SharePoint**. Assigned based on the number of **Microsoft 365** user accounts. {% hint style="info" %} Shared mailboxes require the same licensing as individual user mailboxes, with each shared mailbox requiring one **Microsoft** user license. {% endhint %} ### Git platforms Licenses for protecting **Git** repositories (**Azure DevOps**, **Bitbucket**, **GitHub**, **GitLab**), assigned based on the number of repositories: 1. **GitProtect Enterprise (on-premises)** — a license type that enables backup of all on-premises systems installed across the entire company. 2. **GitProtect Enterprise (cloud)** — a license type that enables backup of all cloud-hosted systems across the entire company. 3. **GitProtect PRO (cloud)** — a license type that enables backup of the entire organization. It is designed for individuals, startups, and small teams. {% hint style="info" %} There is no need to assign a license to all repositories. The license is assigned only to the repositories that are to be protected. {% endhint %} ### Jira 1. **Jira** — protection for cloud-hosted **Jira** instances, assigned based on the number of users; the license must cover all users in the protected **Jira** instance. ### Confluence 1. **Confluence** — protection for cloud-hosted **Confluence** instances, assigned based on the number of users; the license must cover all users in the protected **Confluence** instance. *** ## Backup agents (workers) In addition to standard licenses, **Xopero ONE** provides supplementary free backup agent (worker) licenses used to initiate specific operations and processes within the software, depending on the use case or deployment scenario. {% hint style="info" %} In an on-premises deployment model, these licenses must be assigned to an installed agent. {% endhint %} Free worker licenses allow you to manage storage, restore backups, and back up resources locally, when combined with a dedicated **Microsoft 365**, **Git**, **Jira**, or **Confluence** license: 1. **Cloud worker** — agent responsible for running backup tasks in SaaS deployments. Each **Xopero ONE** environment is assigned one cloud worker. 2. **Local worker** — licenses for an agent responsible for running backup tasks in on-premises deployments. It allows the agent to be run on the same host as **Xopero ONE Management Service** and enables copying its settings. A maximum of one license is available in the license package. 3. **Feature worker** — licenses for an agent responsible for running backup tasks for **Microsoft 365**, **Git** platforms, **Jira**, and **Confluence**. It is always included in the license package in unlimited quantities. {% hint style="danger" %} Backup agents are used for process management and data restoration (e.g., restoring cloud platform data). A device assigned a free worker license **cannot perform backups of its own local resources**. {% endhint %} *** ## Useful links and items {% content-ref url="/pages/dqGX12MsZFn0BBNP2d80" %} [License administration](/xopero-one-en/management/license-administration.md) {% endcontent-ref %} --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
