Cisco Multiparty Licensing
Keep Your Organization Connected and Productive
Today’s office is diverse, fast-paced, and unconstrained by geography.
But it’s still as important as ever for employees to connect and
collaborate. Maybe it’s a one-on-one meeting between co-workers in
separate offices. Or a brainstorming session with members of several
different teams. No matter the situation or where people are located,
being able to connect in a face-to-face environment is critical. You
need to give your employees access to the video technology and
communications tools that make these connections possible.
Benefits
• Empower your entire
organization to work together
with business-quality multiparty
video collaboration that helps
clients, partners, and customers
connect face-to-face.
• Increase productivity with
video, audio, and contentsharing tools that help you
innovate and make better
decisions faster.
• Improve accessibility to planned
meetings and impromptu
collaboration sessions.
• Personalize and secure the
experience with customized
profiles and PINs.
Now it’s easy, with Cisco Multiparty licensing for Collaboration Meeting
Rooms (CMR) Premises. With cost-effective and easy-to-scale
licensing, you can simplify video collaboration and make high-quality
unified communications and video meetings part of everyone’s
daily routine.
Deliver Personalized, High-Quality Multiparty
Video Collaboration
Cisco Multiparty licenses are perpetual, all-in-one multiparty video
licenses. They are available in two options: Personal and
Shared (Table 1).
• Personal Multiparty licenses, included in Cisco Unified Workspace
Licensing (CUWL) Professional, each designate a single named host
who can hold multiparty meetings at any time, for any number of
participants.
• Shared Multiparty licenses are available a la carte, and each
supports one concurrent meeting. They can be shared among any
number of users, offering an effective way to use shared-room
systems. You can even get a discounted price on Shared Multiparty
licenses if purchased with room systems. This price includes the
Cisco Communications Manager TelePresence Room system
registration license.

Designed to Scale with Your
Business Growth
Cisco Multiparty licenses include
Cisco TelePresence® Server with
Cisco TelePresence Conductor,
Cisco TelePresence Management
Suite (TMS), TMS Provisioning
Extension (TMSPE), Expressway Rich
Media Sessions, and Microsoft Lync/
Skype for Business interoperability
license.* All Cisco TelePresence
products are available as virtualized
solutions that can be deployed on
Cisco Unified Computing System™
(Cisco UCS®) servers or reside jointly
with Business Edition 6000 or 7000
Series (BE6000 or BE7000).
Meetings can scale easily to include
any number of participants, up
to the available capacity of the
Cisco TelePresence Server video
conferencing platforms deployed.
With this centralization, you no longer
need to calculate the number of port
licenses required to handle everyday
meetings - everything is licensed per
meeting now. As usage grows,
just add new Cisco TelePresence
Server platforms.
You can also choose Cisco
TelePresence Server on dedicated
hardware. Select an entry-level
solution with the Cisco TelePresence
Server on Multiparty Media 310 or 320
appliances. Or try Cisco TelePresence
Server Mobility Services Engine
(MSE) with the 8710 or Multiparty
Media 820 blade, for a chassis-based
deployment. Easily scale each of
these platforms as user numbers
grow, simply by increasing your
server capacity.
*N
ew customers purchasing Shared Multiparty licenses
will require a Starter Pack license, which includes Cisco
TelePresence Conductor and TMS licenses.
Whether you choose Personal or Shared Multiparty licenses, it’s simple
to set up meetings. You can provide every user with a dedicated,
personalized CMR, which is protected with a PIN. All meeting
participants can meet instantly from any standards-based, videoenabled device; from a mobile or desktop solution enabled by the Cisco
Jabber® platform; or from audio-only devices. Whether participants are
working on a desktop or mobile device or joining the call from a room
system, they can join a meeting from any location.
Additional features include:
• Cisco Expressway Rich Media Session (RMS) licenses, which enable:
-- Remote participant connectivity
-- B2B and B2C connectivity (i.e., Jabber® Guest)
• Interoperability with third-party, standards-based video endpoints and
Microsoft Lync/Skype for Business
• Convenient centralized management of all Multiparty licenses,
Personal and Shared, for high efficiency and simplified maintenance
and upgrades
