1. The licensed version of ADAudit Plus is fully functional and can fetch event data from all enabled Domain Controllers. Depending on the 'type of add-on' licenses purchased, ADAudit Plus will be able to collect required audit data from File Servers, NetApp Filers, Workstations and Member Servers.
2. Both Historical and Real-time reporting is possible.

Even-though any number of computers can be added into ADAudit Plus, the number of Domain Controllers / Member Servers, Workstations / NetApp Filers or File Servers that can be enabled depends on the License count purchased for respective Computers.
