ExSBR Licensing

messageconcept ExSBR will be installed on every internet facing hub transport or edge transport server. One license is needed for each server ExSBR is installed on. Per default you would purchase one license for each hub transport server.

If you are using Exchange Servers with edge transport role, you usually would install ExSBR on these servers only instead of installing our product on your hub transport servers.

If you are using hub transport servers without any external SMTP connectors, you don’t need to install ExSBR on these servers and certainly you don’t need licenses for these internal servers.

Cloud Provider Licensing 

Hosting providers and managed service providers offer their clients Exchange Server mailboxes as monthly subscriptions. Our Cloud Provider Licensing Agreement (CPLA) is a matching montly licensing and maintenance subscription program, similar to Microsoft's SPLA program.

Providers are able to start and cancel the subscriptions on short notice to gain a huge flexibility and minimize investments. messageconcept CPLA counts mailboxes only with no restrictions in the number of transport servers. Therefore it is perfect for complex environments with a large scale of Exchange Servers and Exchange Server organizations.
