Community Edition: Other Editions

In-place upgrade from Community Edition to other Scalix product editions.

You may have downloaded Scalix Community edition because you wanted to try out our email and collaboration platform without having to first make a financial commitment. Now that you’ve experienced first-hand what our product offers, you may want to upgrade to an edition that supports more Premium Users, wireless devices, high availability, and more.

If you’ve deployed Community Edition on a currently supported platform, you can upgrade in place to either Small Business Edition or Enterprise Edition. This involves an in-place, license key-only upgrade that can be performed without any user disruption – even while users are logged in and active.

The following chart outlines the differences between Community Edition and our other two editions, so you can decide which edition is right for you. When you’re ready to upgrade, simply contact your Scalix or reseller sales rep to purchase a license key, and you’re ready to go.
