Trending FAQs: SEM Renewal
Q: How is SEM licensed?
A: SEM is licensed by the number of Nodes sending logs. A node can be a server, firewall, router, or workstation. You only pay for devices sending logs, not the volume of data.
Q: Can I add more nodes during renewal?
A: Yes. If your network has grown, we can add a "step-up" license to your renewal to cover the additional nodes (e.g., going from SEM500 to SEM1000).
Q: Does this include Workstation Edition?
A: No, the Workstation Edition is a separate SKU with lower pricing specifically for desktop endpoints. This renewal covers standard nodes (servers/network gear).
Q: Is SEM cloud or on-prem?
A: SEM is deployed as a virtual appliance on-premise (VMware/Hyper-V) or in your private cloud (Azure/AWS). This ensures your sensitive log data stays under your control.
