From my understanding, Universal is the new Hybrid Rights.
@Shane Kleinert care to add?

Well. we just renewed for 3 years and our Hybrid rights went up in smoke. So i'm kinda pissed right now. First i heard about these universal licenses was 10 min ago when i asked where the hybrid rights went.
s
Universal is replacing hybrid rights - If you talk with your Rep, the plan from my understanding is that will just transition to universal. It did not go up in smoke.
Unfortunately things are happening very quickly, March 8th LOTS more info will be out there then what has been sprinkled out via CUGC and other mediums.

March 3rd my site dies. We've been in discussions about the renewal for weeks, so this is quite the shock

Are you on perpetual licensing?
with hybrid rights for cloud provisioning?
Are you currently working with a Partner right now, if so, that would be your best course of action to have them work with Citrix on your behalf to address the situation. I can tell you we have multiple of these going on right now, and are sorting through them. The execution was quick and messaging was not as clear. If you aren't working with a partner right now would be happy to help out just dont' want to step on any existing toes/relationships there

We were on the old Citrix Workspace Premium Plus with Hybrid rights. We're now on the DaaS premium, as we did not need some of the features that came with the old WPP. Even Citrix's page on licensing talks about hybrid rights still.

On a call right now, will reply back here in a few.

We are working with our account manager.
Thanks for the replies. Appreciate it.

We've got a local meeting next week and everyone is asking if there will be answers there... doesn't look like I'll even have an Citrix representation at our meeting 🙃
s
doesn't sound like Citrix even has this set in stone yet. From what i'm gathering, citrix is removing any renewals for perpetual licenses and termed licenses, and you can't buy perp (since 2020)/term any more either....Citrix is also doing away with 'citrix daas' licensing. They are all combining everything into a 'universal' license with a couple editions.
don't quote me on any of that 😃
