Flex credits are AVEVA’s way of charging customers for using its software. In other words, you need Flex credits to use AVEVA’s software, whether on-premise or on cloud. How it works is simple: You purchase the required number of credits from AVEVA, and then the credits are consumed according to the rate plan of the software you use.
You can purchase credits by contacting your local AVEVA sales representative directly or by sending an email to feedback@AVEVA.com.
Note: You cannot purchase credits using CONNECT.
