Twinning License

[H3th3n]

I am trying to figure out how to obtain a license for the twinning feature on our Avaya IP office phones.
I have tried going through Avaya and they told me to go through the vendor that sold us our system, and he was not helpful.

Does anyone know how to access this license?

Thank you

The licence was discontinued some time ago IIRC. As it's been free for while now on the newer releases

 

[H3th3n]

what is the latest version where it is free?

Mobile Twinning has been free since R8.0GA on Essential Edition.

Find another vendor/maintainer as soon as you can!

We are running version 7.0, so it looks like an upgrade is in order.
Thank you for all the feedback.

An upgrade might end up much cheaper indeed

BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

Please keep in mind:
For the upgrade to release 8.1 (and up to 9.1) you will need two licenses:
a) An upgrade license -and-
b) An Essential Edition license

If you currently use IP 500 than you might consider a switch to IP 500 v2, because if you change the box, you don't have to buy the upgrade lic.
But you always need the Essential Edition lic.
