Activating Open-AudIT and Your 30-Day Enterprise Trial
Every download of Open-AudIT 7 starts with a 30-day Enterprise licence covering unlimited devices, so you work with the full product from day one. Upgrading from version 6 starts the same trial.
Steps
- Log in to Open-AudIT. The first login shows the activation screen.
- Activation asks for your email address. Enter it and activate. Your 30-day Enterprise trial starts straight away, with no device cap.
Warning
To be confirmed for 7.0.0: whether the activation screen also asks for your country, name and company, whether there is a separate EULA step, and whether a GDPR path still routes some countries through the FirstWave website. This page will be updated once Product confirms the final activation flow.
When the 30 Days End
You have three choices, and your discovered devices stay in the database whichever you pick:
- Buy a licence. Professional or Enterprise, on an annual licence from 100 devices. See pricing.
- Ask for an extension. If the evaluation is not finished, request a trial extension.
- Move to Free. Open-AudIT keeps running on the Free edition for up to 100 devices. The Enterprise features stop, and the header shows Open-AudIT Free.
Entering a Licence Key Later
If you buy a licence or receive an extension, go to Menu → Admin → Licenses, click Enter a License Key and paste in your licence string.
Warning
To be confirmed for 7.0.0: the menu paths on this page (Admin → Licenses, and Menu → Open-AudIT for your first discovery) are the version 6 paths. Check them against the 7.0.0 interface.
Tip
Once activated, start discovering what's on your network.
