Q7: What license migration plan is available from USG to USG FLEX?
We offer an easy migration plan for you to seamlessly migrate to the USG FLEX series.

This is a one-time offer for every USG you own.

*Once you have migrated licenses successfully, your USG licenses will no longer exist in USG devices.
