A step above, a step beyond ESD is here today with ELA™!

The advantages of using Electronic Software Delivery (ESD) in your business model are undeniable-a "must have" feature if your software is going to compete in the global marketplace where buyers and sellers are active 24/7/365.

To make the leap to Electronic License Distribution and grab your share of the explosive growth in the marketplace, you must take the step above, the step beyond ESD by adding software license and license activation capabilities to your application . The SoftwareKey Licensing System allows you to do that simply and easily with ELA, the Electronic Licensing Activation process that allows you to take full control over what happens to your software licenses.

The First Step: Implement software licensing features in your application

Software, as such, is not "sold", at least not in the traditional sense. Instead, licenses to use the software are sold. In order to profitably do this, it is necessary to integrate licensing features within your application. For example you could start with a demo version of your software which could then be unlocked into the retail version. This is just one of the many features offered by Protection PLUS™, a software licensing toolkit which has been a success story for over ten years. This field proven leader offers licensing features designed to increase your licensing sales opportunities tenfold .

Introducing Electronic License Activation™ (ELA)

When you implement a demo version of your software and want to use unlocking capabilities such as "software key" activation, you can take advantage of features like extending a demo or rental version. Your customer already has the application. You simply need to send a one-time encrypted message to do something - anything you can imagine. This is what we call Electronic License Activation™ (ELA). Our software keys are NOT serial numbers or CD keys and cannot be reused, like many other traditional ESD e-commerce solutions. ELA lets you continuously morph your application right before the eyes of your customer:

•  Unlock your demo into the retail or registered version.
•  Upgrade from a "lite" version to a professional version.
•  Convert single-user version to multi-user version.
•  Enable one or more features in a modular application.
•  Increase number of allowed simultaneous network users.
•  And much more...
