    How is Citrix UHMC licensed?

    Citrix UHMC uses a simple, predictable licensing model based on total throughput capacity (up to 1000 Gbps) rather than per-instance, per-socket, or per-user fees.

    How much does Citrix UHMC cost?

    Citrix UHMC pricing is based on concurrent users and provides significant cost savings compared to purchasing individual point solutions.
