Hi, everyone.
I am wondering whether we need to pay extra money for installing the gateway on a virtual machine. Currently, I am a pro-license users and install the on-premise gateway on my own computer. But i could not schedule refresh when my computer is offline.
Thus we would like to install this gateway on a virtual machine. Do we need to pay extra money for doing this?
Thank you for looking at this issue.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous The only cost would be associated to the actual VM itself (Iaas - Infrastructure as a Service). There is no cost for the gateway itself.
