Adobe Workfront Fusion licenses
Workfront Fusion has two licensing models, a new operations-based model, and a legacy connector-based model.
Operations-based licensing model (New)
The new Workfront Fusion licensing model is based on the number of operations your organization uses. In this model, all organizations have access to the same functionality.
For information on what counts as an operation under the new licensing model, see Operations in Adobe Workfront Fusion.
Connector-based licensing model (Legacy)
In the Adobe Workfront Fusion legacy licensing model, Fusion offers two different licenses that determine the functionality you are able to access. Your organization chose one of these licenses when it purchased Workfront Fusion.
To find out what type of Workfront Fusion license your organization has, contact your Workfront Fusion administrator.
