Upgrade Trial Licenses – Service Providers

For information for Subscriber operators, go to Upgrade a Trial.

You can upgrade a trial during the trial period. When you upgrade a trial, the time remaining and all settings transfer to the upgraded trial. For information on trial parameters, go to About Trials in WatchGuard Cloud.

These upgrade paths are available:

  • If you have a trial of WatchGuard EPP, you can upgrade to a trial of WatchGuard EPDR or WatchGuard Advanced EPDR.
  • If you have a trial of WatchGuard EDR, you can upgrade to a trial of WatchGuard EPDR or WatchGuard Advanced EPDR.
  • If you have a trial of WatchGuard EPDR, you can upgrade to a trial of WatchGuard Advanced EPDR.
  • If you have a trial of WatchGuard Advanced EPDR, you cannot upgrade the trial.
  • If you have a trial of AuthPoint Multi-Factor Authentication, you can upgrade to a trial of AuthPoint Total Identity Security.

When you upgrade a trial, the trial of the new product can take up to two minutes to become available. When you upgrade a trial for endpoint security, you can add modules to the trial, if available. You can add additional modules to an in-progress trial.

You can convert a trial license to a term license. For more information, go to Convert a Trial to a Term or Subscription License - Service Providers.

If you start a trial of WatchGuard EPP and upgrade the trial to WatchGuard EPDR or Advanced EPDR, but then decide to buy a term license of WatchGuard EPP, the Subscriber account will be provisioned correctly at activation for the termed license.

If you have a Total Security Suite license with EDR Core and then start a trial of an Endpoint Security product such as WatchGuard EPDR, the EDR Core license becomes inactive in WatchGuard Cloud.

To upgrade a trial, from WatchGuard Cloud:

  1. From Account Manager, select Overview.
  2. Select Administration > Trials.
  3. Select the tab for your product.

  1. In the Account Name column, next to the account you want to upgrade the trial for, click and select Upgrade Trial.
    The Upgrade Trial dialog box opens.

  1. From the Product list, select the product you want to upgrade to.
  2. If this is an endpoint security trial, from the list of modules, select the check box for each endpoint security module you want to evaluate.
  3. Click Upgrade.
    The Product Type column updates to show the new product for the remainder of the trial period.
