Solutions for Software Licensing

Often, the sale of a software product is similar to the sale of a CD or DVD. Once it is out of the supplier's hand, control is forever lost. Wouldn't it be great if you could have control over your software, even after it has been downloaded by a purchaser? SoftwareKey Protection PLUS combined with Instant SOLO can now provide that control.

Now you can extend a trial expiration date, convert a trial software to full version, handle automated updating of your software, complete control over licensing management; all through the licensing features available through Protection PLUS and Instant SOLO.
