VoiceConsole Licensing

Honeywell generates and provides you with a license file that lets you run the software according to your purchase agreement.

Licensing for VoiceConsole is available as:

Perpetual licensing for VoiceConsole On Prem deployment
A subscription option for VoiceConsole On Prem deployment or VoiceConsole Cloud deployment

VoiceConsole 6.0 and greater uses a new application-level licensing architecture.

Application-level licensing requires the use of mobile (Talkman and Android) applications built with Honeywell's DevKit environment, such as the Honeywell pre-built Guided Work Solutions (GWS) App, Partner built applications, and specific Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) solutions such as Honeywell Voice for Manhattan Active (HVMA).

Honeywell recommends that customers upgrade to VoiceConsole 6.1 (and future versions) to avoid potential compatibility problems with future software releases.

Honeywell continues to support TaskBuilder-based and VoiceArtisan-based solutions with a GWS license. Customers without a DevKit-based license are to continue using VoiceConsole 5.x where prior VoiceConsole and VoiceCatalyst product licenses are still valid. Higher-tiered subscription licenses for VoiceConsole, such as VoiceConsole Professional, will be available to enable advanced features such as VoiceConsole Cloud Deployment.

For more information, see Licensing. For more information about VoiceConsole Professional contact your Honeywell representative.

You must enter a valid license before you can load device profiles, operators, or task packages onto devices. The license must also support the total number of devices connecting to VoiceConsole, not the number of devices per site. That is, you only need one license to cover all of your sites, but that license must support the total of all devices at all of the sites. If you need to add more devices, contact Honeywell Customer Service for a new license.

For VoiceConsole On Prem deployment customers, if you are installing into a clustered environment, you will need to know both the number of devices and the number of nodes into which you will be installing. You will need to import the license into each installation of VoiceConsole on each node.

Licenses for VoiceConsole Cloud deployment customers are applied by Honeywell before deployment. A new license can later be applied by Honeywell or the customer. When a new VoiceConsole Cloud deployment license is applied, it may take up to 10 minutes for the new license to be synced.
