Licensing & Pricing

This page provides a clear overview of the Mervis licensing and pricing structure. Pricing is specific to the number of data points purchased.

• Sales Contact: For purchasing, customized quotes, or integration assistance, please contact our Sales Department.
• Pricing Note: All prices are one-time costs (unless specified as monthly) and are excluding VAT.

The Mervis system is divided into the engineering environment (IDE) and the runtime software (RT) that executes logic on the controller.

• Mervis IDE: The development environment is always free to use. You can download it, program your projects, and configure systems without any licensing costs.
• Mervis RT: The runtime software running on the PLC/controller is always a licensed and paid product.
  • Trial Mode: Mervis RT will function for 20 minutes without a valid license. This allows for free testing and verification of your logic before purchase.
  • Bundled Licenses: For certain hardware (e.g., Unipi), the Mervis RT license is often already included in the hardware price.
  • Standalone Licenses: For other platforms or custom installations, licenses must be purchased from Energocentrum.

Mervis SCADA On-premises licenses are a one-time purchase. Licensing is based strictly on the number of datapoints. All licenses include unlimited users.

Important License Details:

• Installation: Remote installation by Energocentrum is required for all On-premises deployments.
• Updates: 1 year of software upgrades is included. Subsequent yearly updates cost 1/2 of the original license price and are only paid for the year in which the upgrade is desired.
• Validation: The application uses an online license that needs to contact the license server every few days to validate the license.

Mervis SCADA can be used as a fully managed Cloud Hosting subscription service. Pricing is a monthly cost based on the total number of hosted datapoints.

Mervis DB licenses for historical variables are a one-time purchase.

In addition to standard SCADA and database licensing, Mervis provides secure connectivity options with the following terms:

• Mervis Proxy: This service is free to use for every licensed Mervis RT (Runtime).
  • Note: To use this service, a ProxyId is required. This can be obtained using your license number from the provider who issued your license.
• Mervis CloudAccess: This service is available for every customer of Mervis SCADA cloud. For setup and activation, please contact our sales department.

Should you have any questions regarding licensing, installation, or system requirements, you can schedule an online meeting with the R&D team.
