Activate Trial Licenses for Panda Products

If you have an end-user account, you can activate a trial license for a Panda product. Panda trial licenses have 100 users, are valid for 30 days, and can be renewed once for an additional 30 days. You can try these Panda products for 30 days on a trial license:

  • Panda Systems Management
  • Panda Email Protection

The first time you activate a license for a Panda product, you must link your Panda account and your WatchGuard account. If you do not have a Panda account, you create one as part of the activation process.

To activate a trial license for a Panda product for your account:

  1. Go to https://www.watchguard.com/ and log in to the WatchGuard Support Center with your WatchGuard account user name and password.
  2. On the Support Center Home page, select My WatchGuard > Manage Products.
  3. In the Endpoint Security section, click View Products.
    The Endpoint Security products page opens and shows products activated to your account and available trials.

  1. In the Endpoint Security Products You Can Try section, select the Panda product that you want to activate a trial license for and click Start a Trial.
    The Activate Products page opens.
  2. If this is the first Panda license you have activated, you are prompted to create a Panda account or connect an existing Panda account with your WatchGuard account.

  1. Do one of the following:
    • If you do not have a Panda account:
        1. Click I need a Panda account. A Panda account is created for you. We recommend that you save your account ID. You need this ID if you contact Support.

        2. Click Submit.
        3. Click Continue.
          The WatchGuard home page opens. You need to start the trial license activation again.

      • If you have a Panda account:
        1. Click Link my Panda account.
          A Panda login page opens.
        2. Type your Panda account user name and password.

        3. Click Log in.
          Your Panda account is linked to your WatchGuard account.

        4. Click Continue.
  1. On the Activate Products page, in the Friendly Name text box, enter a name for your license. This gives you an easy way to identify your trial license on the WatchGuard website and in WatchGuard Cloud.

  1. Click Activate.

You now have a trial for 100 licenses for your Panda product. It can take up to 48 hours for your trial license to become active. The trial license expires after 30 days, but you can extend it once to continue services for an additional 30 days.

Extend a Trial License

Panda trial licenses are valid for 30 days, and can be extended one time for another 30 days. When you extend a trial, the trial period is extended by 30 days.
