Nagios XI Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition

[xlin125]

What are the differences between Nagios Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition? I downloaded the Nagios XI from "Source Installer" on Nagios XI Downloads page. What Nagios XI edition I got then? Thanks!

All XI installs include the Enterprise Edition features, and a 60-day trial of them. After that trial is up the features are disabled until you purchase a license for them.

Thanks for the quick response.

So I installed a Nagios XI and later applied/installed a license for it. So now this Nagios XI is an Enterprise Edition, correct? I went to the link that you provided for the comparison for these two editions. At the bottom, this page says "Purchasing Nagios XI Enterprise Edition requires an annual renewal.". Does this mean that I have to renew this license annually, otherwise all the Enterprise Edition features will be disabled, then at that time, my Nagios XI will be just a Standard Edition? Can you clarify it? Thanks again!

Yes, to keep the Enterprise functionality, you will have to renew every year. If you don't renew, it will revert back to the standard addition.
