Need help with licensing

Thread needs solution

I am a newbie and want to buy Acronis vmProtect for organization.
We have a next VMware infrastructure:
a cluster of three servers and VMware license installed (see in the attached screenshot)
I want a 24x7 support.
As far as I understood the license costs 599 euro for a single physical processor, so I need 5x599 = 2995 euro. Am I right?
What else do I need to know about licensing in brief?

Hi Igor,

From what I can see you've calculated everything properly. Licensing in vmProtect is pretty similar to vSphere one, i.e. it is also CPU-socket-based. You can always check the required amount of licenses by looking at summary tab of the ESXi host - see screen shot in the attach.

Note that in case you register vCenter in vmProtect and back up a VM which resides on vSphere cluster then the licenses will be required for all ESX(i) hosts from this cluster (i.e. total amount of CPUs on all these hosts). You can override this by registering specific ESXi host instead of vCenter in vmProtect, however in this case there will be no vMotion or storage vMotion supported (features specific to cluster which is managed by vCenter).

Thank you.
