Updating Your License in Astera Centerprise

The license key provided to you for Centerprise 8 contains information regarding the number of clients that can connect to a single server and the features available to the connected clients. In case you wish to change this information, or if your current license has expired, you can request Astera for an update. Once your license has been updated by Astera, you can update it on your Centerprise client.

In this article, we will be covering the steps to successfully update your Centerprise 8 license.

1. First, you will have to access the License Management window, which can be done in three ways:

  • Go to Tools > Manage License.
