You cannot change VMware Licenses, you will need to contact VMware, if they will change your Licenses.<br />
<br />
e.g. VMware vSphere Standard License cannot be changed by end user to VMware vSphere Essentials.

What I mean to say is, If we got the license for Essential Plus, can we update the license in VMWare without any impact

VMWare license upgrade

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
