Challenge License Management

 

There is a main problem in setting up your license management. When you purchase a software from your vendor, the product’s name on the bill may differ from the name the software will have when it is installed to a computer. The vendor may call his goods like ”MS Off pro 2016”, but if you scan a PC, it will have a name like “Microsoft Office 2016 Professional“. If you would just import the purchased products from you buyer’s database, a qualified reconciliation may be impossible, because the names differ. You can only create a license balance if the names match (depending on the used license metrics).

 

There are providers of license management solutions that would like to establish their own standards by creating unique IDs for software products and licenses. Good idea, but after all everyone will be dependent to their services and pay for it forever. The Lan-Inspector prioritizes the best effort in the name of the customer. By using the software name the installation has, you won’t be dependent to third party service providers.
