Evaluating Software License Management Solutions
Although each software application developer has unique needs and goals regarding software licensing, the following guidelines will provide guidance in selecting a software licensing solution.
In addition to the support for your development environment and deployment platforms, consider:
Integration Model
- Does the license manager allow for a
single software integration effort with the ability to support changes to
license models without recoding?
License model support
- Does the license manager provide
the breadth of license models you need to support business now and as your
product evolves?
Customization Level
- Can the license management
solution be customized and tailored to fit your requirements 100%?
Level of Support
- Does the vendor provide the level of
technical and customer service you need?
Return on Investment
- Does the pricing model of the
license manager support internal business goals?
