BACKGROUND: Recently purchased 'ArcGIS Pro GIS Professional Standard' edition as an upgrade to be used on top of 'ArcMap Desktop Basic'. I was told by a representative that if I were to purchase only 'ArcGIS Pro GIS Professional Standard', I would be able to use ALL Geoprocessing Standard tools [excluding advanced-only capabilities]. Also I was told that the arcgis desktop basic will also elevate to Standard license and to purchase 'ArcGIS Desktop Standard' for an additional $250/yr would not be necessary when coupled with existing arcgis desktop software. QUESTION/PROBLEM:
1) why has ArcCatalog/ArcMap not changed license when GIS Professional Standard was activated?
