Scaling & Feature Licenses

Expand functionality at the software-level

Anticipate changing requirements and leverage additional features via simple license activations, powered by the Q-SYS Intelligent Platform OS. Q-SYS Scaling Licenses offer expanded functionality in alignment with your specific installation requirements, while Q-SYS Feature Licenses enable additional features on Q-SYS Products, letting you design your Q-SYS system to the unique needs of each space.
