Hello! I´ve got some projects in vision in one gateway and a new one in perspective in another gateway. Can I use same license for both gateways or should I move my perspective project to the main gateway. thanks! ---

1 license per gateway. If you have two gateways you need two licenses. Whether you move the project or not depends on several factors. Hardware capability is the big one. Perspective and Vision load a gateway completely differently. ---

Thanks bschroeder, wonder if is worthy to have 2 different gateways for vision and perspective or really doesn´t matter. Cheers. ---

I would say that is not really necessary unless you have a large scale system. At that point do tag collection and data processing in one and visualization in the other since most of the processing is on the client versus the actual gateway. ---
