What’s New? 3CX V16 & Pricing

With less than a week to go until the launch of 3CX’s V16, 3CX are inviting partners to join their Live Launch Session at 15:00 on Wednesday 27th March, simply head over to their YouTube Channel on Wednesday to find out more about the much anticipated version update.

New Pricing

As part of their revamp, 3CX implemented a new pricing structure last week. The new pricing saw reductions of up to 40%, making many licences become more competitively priced. Please note, however, the pricing of some perpetual licences has now increased.

What’s New? 3CX Standard & Free Licences

As you may be aware, 3CX are changing their free and standard licences as of 1st April 2019. In order to help you prepare for these changes, we will be putting together a series of blogs which will break down the changes for you.

Changes to Standard Licences:

As part of the revamp, some features are being removed from Standard licences, these include:

  • Call recording
  • Call reporting
  • Queues
  • Office 365 Integration
  • Bridges

These features will remain available on Pro and Enterprise level licences. If you are already on a paid version of the Standard licence and still have valid maintenance you do not need to do anything, your licences will be upgraded to Pro free of charge for the remainder of the licence contract. Following the licence duration, you will need to renew your licence via Pro maintenance to maintain these features.

Changes to Free Version

All free licences downloaded from 3CX’s website after 1st April 2019 will be a V16 Pro annual licence. This licence will be valid for 40 days from the initial activation date. Following this, the licence key will then revert to a standard licence unless it is upgraded.

ProVu can also now help you source a proof of concept key for any licence for 30 days. Simply contact our sales team to discuss your projects and organise a free trial key.

New Licence Sizes

There are a number of new licence sizes coming to annual licences (only), giving you even more options to cater for customers whose requirements fall somewhere in between, these include:

  • 24 SC
  • 48 SC
  • 96 SC
  • 192 SC

To discuss any of the above information with a member of our team please call 01484 840048 or email contact@provu.co.uk.
