Cisco Collaboration Flex Plan Meetings-Named User

Cisco Collaboration Flex Plan

Cisco^® Collaboration Flex Plan gives you access to Cisco’s collaboration products, allowing you to mix and match buying models and deployment models in a single subscription depending on your buying needs. One subscription covers entitlement and technical support for: (a) the cloud services Cisco Webex^® Meetings, Cisco Webex Calling, Cisco Webex Calling for SP, and Cisco Webex Teams and (b) the software Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Cisco Meeting Server.

Buying models

In your subscription order, you will designate a buying model for a meetings solution (“Meetings”) and/or calling solution (“Calling”), which determines your payment obligations. If you exceed the capacity count limits associated with the buying model in your order, you will be obligated to pay your Partner (or Cisco if purchasing direct from Cisco) for such excess use. There are three buying models available: Enterprise Agreement, Active User, and Named User. You can choose different buying models for Meetings and Calling, but you may not have more than one buying model for either solution at any point. During your subscription, You also have the flexibility to change your buying model from: (a) Named User to Active User or Enterprise Agreement or (b) Active User to Enterprise Agreement. Table 1 shows the Collaboration Flex Plan buying models and the availability of Meetings and Calling within each buying model.

Deployment models

You will choose a software deployment model for each of your users. For each user with a Meetings entitlement, you can designate one of the following two deployment models: hosted in Cisco’s Webex cloud or deployed on your own premises. For each user with a Calling entitlement, you can designate one of following three deployment models: hosted in Cisco’s Webex cloud, deployed on your own premises, or hosted through a Partner’s hosted services. Note that when you choose an on-premises or partner-hosted deployment, you will also receive the cloud service Cisco Webex Teams. You have the flexibility to transition from on-premises or partner-hosted to a cloud deployment and vice versa. The deployment model you choose for a user determines their software entitlement, as illustrated in Table 2 below. See the Features and Benefits section of this Data Sheet for more information regarding the deployment options for Cisco Collaboration Flex Plan Meetings-Named User Agreement.

Named User buying model description

A Named User’s account must not be transferred to another person, except upon: (a) termination of the Named User’s employment or (b) with Cisco’s prior written approval. If you want to purchase more Named Users, work with Cisco or your Partner to modify your order.
