License usage: trial license quantities

[Nandini_123]

We wanted to understand if free trial license quantities are also added to the number of commercial licenses purchased by a customer or if only purchased license quantities will be considered for license usage. 

Please share the relevant links if possible. 

Thanks and Regards,

Nandini

I believe the trial allocations will be used then shift into your license allocation but that would need to be confirmed by an account rep.

A Dynatrace license allows you to consume subscribed Dynatrace services based on your contract and agreed-upon terms. You can either have a DPS or non-DPS licensing model. 

Additionally, there are free tiers when you purchase Dynatrace subscription:
