Prevx 3.0 license to WSA license

[sdpaul]

Is there an automated way to convert a new Prevx license to equivalent WSA license? I have three unused licenses that I would like to convert.
Thanks

Not automatically, but if you write into the Webroot support inbox, they should be able to help you out

I'm interested myself in this topic, but unfortunately I don't know what Webroot support inbox is. May you be more specific? Thank you.

Just tried that and despite explaining how I wanted to migrate my 6 licenses to Webroot before they expired next year all I got was a canned response:

Seems the years of superlative support by Joe/Prevx are unlikely to be reciprocated /continued by Webroot when they apparently don't even read the question let alone understand it!

I seriously doubt that. I am sure Joe or TH will be along soon to help you recitify the issue. Have a little faith in them.

Cheers - but I've been around a while longer than your goodself and Joe et al have continually and consistently re-affirmed my faith over many years!
It's that rare quality of support that keeps me as a loyal customer and extends recommendations to all my contacts.

However my first exposure to WebRot support with far simpler question than those I often posed to Prevx support in the past and it's an epic fail!
Not exactly a reassuring first impression!

Can you send me your email address? This is an error. We have a large number of support staff and I suspect there was just some miscommunication.

Thanks!

PM'd you and I'm sure it was just unlucky "teething" problems!
Once again many thanks for salvaging the situation...

Despite his heavy agenda I can confirm the Chief Dentist has solved WSA's minor "teething problem with licensing"! (at least for me).

I'll play with migrating remainder of my PX3 seats to WSA and using new WSA management console during next few months - thanks again.

I just today (Friday, 5-Oct-2012) submitted a similar license change request via the WSA link in the earlier message and got the exact same response about it being Prevx support's problem.

So it looks like it may NOT be handled!

Can someone CLEARLY list the step(s) needed to change a Prevx 3.0 license to a WSA license, and the step(s) to take should that not work?

Thanks,

James

I've sent you a PM - the process is still somewhat clunky because it isn't able to be automated yet.

Thanks!
