How do NeoLoad licenses work?

There are different types of NeoLoad software licenses to suit customers' specific usage requirements. Each license key gives access to the Controller and defines the number of simulated users and monitors allowed. Load Generators are not covered by licenses, so you can install as many of these as you wish.

Tricentis supports several types of pricing fitted to every use of NeoLoad:

• Regular (per seat) license: Either permanent or temporary, a regular (per seat) license is linked to one machine. The NeoLoad Controller is used on this machine.
  Neotys proposes two regular (per seat) licences that are the Standard and Professional editions. For more information, see NeoLoad pricing.
• Shared license: A shared license allows making the best of the authorized Virtual Users capacity between several machines. When distributing the Virtual Users capacity, the NeoLoad Controller can be used on several machines simultaneously.
  The Tricentis Edition allows you to take full advantage of a shared license features. For more information, see NeoLoad pricing.
• VUH: The VUH (Virtual User Hours) mode can be used in 2 different ways:
  • To perform Cloud testing with NeoLoad for the duration of your testing campaigns without having to purchase a license. In this case, VUH are used independently, within a Cloud session and any hour started is due in full. For more information, see Test from the Cloud.
  • To complete license VUs in case these are not enough to start a test. In this case, VUH are stacked upon the license VUs and they are calculated with an accuracy to the second.

  For more information, please refer to the VUH User Guide.
