Omniscope Editions
All Editions are installed using the same free installer (download). Viewers can be installed without admin privileges and upgraded to other editions at any time by activating with a license key. All Editions have the same system requirements, but Server Editions typically run on "always-on" server machines with failover/backup servers to support 24/7 automation. See also this feature matrix.
Typical bundle solutions involve a mix of editions, such as one Server (2 spare keys) , 8 Desktops and unlimited Viewers.
