1) SCR Pro Pack License vs. Subscription Free

In the SCR Pro Pack license you'll get access to real-time threat intelligence from Trellix. This means that the device is checking in real-time towards the cloud database for ransomwares, malwares, ads, phising attempts etc. instead of the local database which is updated every 2 days if you had the free version. This affects the throughput of your device but you will get a more secure network. 

You will also get the DNS Content Filter (Web filtering) which can block websites based on categories that might be harmful, or inappropriate for minors.
