Software and virtual UTM upgrades
Virtual UTMs are licensed by the number of users or IPs. Software and virtual firewalls running SFOS are licensed by the maximum number of cores and the maximum amount of RAM that SFOS utilizes. The table below shows the comparison between UTM OS and SFOS.

|---|---|---|
| 10 | SFv1C4 | Maximum of 1 core and 4 GB RAM |
| 25 | SFv1C4 | Maximum of 1 core and 4 GB RAM |
| 50 | SFv2C4 | Maximum of 2 cores and 4 GB RAM |
| 75 | SFv2C4 | Maximum of 2 cores and 4 GB RAM |

License bundles
When you migrate to SFOS, you get a Base License in addition to your other licenses. Your support package will be Enhanced Support.
Note
If you migrate your UTM license from a virtual UTM appliance to an SFOS virtual appliance, the base license isn't migrated. You must separately purchase a base license before the migration.
For information about the available license bundles, see License Bundles.
If you have a Sophos BasicGuard license, it'll be converted to a Xstream Protection license plus Email Protection and Web Server Protection, and the remaining term will be halved in length compared to the time you had remaining on BasicGuard. Check the terms of your license, as these may have changed.
