Software- und IoT-Monetarisierung
Softwarelizenzierung
Monetarisieren und schützen Sie Ihre Anwendungen mit flexibler, leistungsstarker und sicherer Technologie zur Softwarelizenzierung.
Softwarelizenzierung
Um Software zu monetarisieren und vor Übernutzung und Piraterie zu schützen, benötigen Softwarehersteller und IoT-Unternehmen eine flexible und leistungsstarke Lizenzierungstechnologie. Die FlexNet-Lizenzierungstechnologien (FlexNet Publisher und FlexNet Embedded) sind der De-facto-Standard für die Softwarelizenzierung und das Compliancemanagement.

FLEXNET SOFTWARE LICENSING SOLUTIONS
FlexNet Licensing bietet Optionen für alle Bereitstellungsformen: On-Premise, Embedded, SaaS und Cloud
ADVANCED SOFTWARE LICENSING TECHNOLOGY
FlexNet Embedded
Benefit from Revenera’s flexible software licensing solutions with support for all platforms and monetization models. FlexNet Embedded is a small footprint SDK that works with software applications – on-premises, cloud, virtualized or mobile – as well as with embedded software on devices.
- Implement all modern monetization models out-of-the-box for packaged, embedded and cloud software.
- Provide in-product and volume license activation support.
- Protect software with tamper-resistant application technology (code obfuscation and sophisticated identification of unauthorized use).
- Broad platform support for a wide range of operating systems, including embedded and mobile.
- Detect virtual machine cloning and manage compliance according to your policies.
- Detect if your applications are running in Docker containers, and support concurrent and consumption-based licensing models in container environments.
FlexNet Publisher
FlexNet Publisher is the de facto standard in software licensing solutions, used by thousands of publishers to license and protect their applications. It supports a variety of software monetization models, captures usage, and offers advanced protection like tamper-resistance.
- Manage all license models out-of-the-box, including pay-for-overage support.
- Provide efficient in-product and volume license activation support.
- Prevent unauthorized copying and piracy.
- Support flexible machine fingerprinting.
- Support a wide variety of platforms including all major operating systems and virtualization technologies.
Cloud Monetization API
The Cloud Monetization API provides access to FlexNet Embedded capabilities in use cases where an SDK is not the preferred implementation:
- Small-footprint IoT devices that can’t accommodate an SDK and already use JSON/REST for other functions
- Security requirements that restrict the use of third-party software on a device
- SaaS implementations where the underlying hardware is trusted and on-device security is not required
- Quick deployment implementations prior to migrating to FlexNet Embedded SDKs with trusted storage
- Situations requiring control on cryptographic libraries for regulatory reasons, such as FIPS compliance.
For these implementations, the Cloud Monetization API provides a standard web services framework to connect your application to FlexNet Operations.
FlexNet ID Dongle
Today’s state-of-the-art software-based licensing is the choice for most suppliers, offering more flexibility than any hardware-based approach.
However, dongles are still a solution for some use cases, providing software protection by limiting or locking software access to your system.
The FlexNet ID dongle works in conjunction with FlexNet Licensing (FlexNet Embedded or FlexNet Publisher) to enhance security as a form of hostid.
The dongle is a serialized hardware key that attaches to a parallel or USB port and is automatically supported as a valid hostid by any FlexNet Licensing-enabled application.
Revenera offered the out-of-the-box solutions and integrations we needed to support our business model. The transition from a hardware to software model was a learning process and we looked to Revenera for best practices. We’re benefiting from its experience in the industry as we continue to grow our business and do more with its software monetization platform.

BENEFITS OF PURPOSE-BUILT SOFTWARE LICENSING SOLUTIONS
Compared to homegrown systems, purpose-built software licensing solutions reduce your exposure to security vulnerabilities and stop you accumulating technical debt – effectively outsourcing your liabilities so you can focus on customer-facing product development.
On average, software suppliers achieve the following results with FlexNet Licensing:
- 1-3% increase in renewal rates
- 1-5% savings due to automated software delivery and updates
- 2-5% improvement in channel performance via shared access to data
- 5-15% recovery in lost revenue (intentional and unintentional overuse)
- 1-3% savings in support tickets, with fewer escalations related to licensing
Revenera’s software licensing experts have decades of industry experience and are happy to share practical advice, so please get in touch if you’d like to learn more.
Ikon Science is always looking to elevate our customer experience to provide the flexibility through license models and the release of new solutions with different delivery methods. Revenera has been a long-time partner to help us realize this vision by providing a variety of licensing models, remote connectivity options and allowing us to focus on technology innovation.
