Introduction
Manco .NET Licensing System is the powerful
licensing and copy protection software for .NET Windows Forms, WPF, WCF, WWF and
ASP.NET applications, controls and components. It consists of 4 major parts:
- Protection library performs all
operations on validating license rules, like test license expiry or check Unlock
Key validity. Protection library is available for .NET Framework 1.1, 2.0, 3.0,
3.5 and .NET Compact Framework 2.0 and 3.5.
- License Manager is the full functional
application for complete license and customer management. It provides functionality
on integrating software protection to your product and allows managing the Activation
Web Service.
- Activation Web Service is the
web service that allows online product activation. This product can generate Activation
Keys that binds software licenses to the particular PC. It also can communicate
with e-Commerce services (like RegNow or ShareIt!) in order to create necessary
software licensing information like Unlock Keys and/or license files.
- Floating License Web Service
is the web service that allows centralized license distribution and concurrent using
of licenses. It can be installed either into your client’s network or on your side.
Manco .NET Licensing System uses very flexible
licensing schema with following main features:
- Strong license file and unlock
key encryption.
- Flexible license file content
allows creation lots of different licensing schemas.
- 45 predefined rules and unlimited
number of custom values provide you with flexibility in selection of licensing schema.
- Custom values allows you storing
any additional information in the license file, so you can lock/unlock some features
of your product, or make some additional tests to validate license.
- Manco .NET Licensing System allows creation of the
Time/Usage limited evaluation version of your product that is limited by
running time (you can set expiration date or number of days before license expiration),
number of runs and some features of the product.
- Our system uses strong RSA encryption to sign license files.
- You can activate your .NET product using
license file or strong encrypted Unlock Key.
Additional user data can be included to the Unlock Key. Manco.Licensing protection
library then extract this data and allows using it in the code for additional validations.
Using this feature you can, for example, differentiate editions of your product
(for example: base and professional).
- Manco .NET Licensing System allows you to
encrypt the application data, source code and binaries with following using
of the encrypted data and code in your application. Manco.Licensing protection library
allows you dynamically decrypt, compile, load and use encrypted code in runtime.
- Source code integration allows
including of the protection library right in code of your application.
- Component/Control licensing.
Manco.Licensing System provides a complete solution for component and control developers.
- License and Activation e-Mail.
Activation Web Service automatically sends e-Mail with licensing information when
creates it in automatic mode. It also sends e-Mail with activation code to the customer
in case the product is activated successfully. Manco License Manager allows you
to send e-Mails with licenses and Unlock Keys to the customers in one click. Manco
Licensing System can be configured so every version of every product will have own
confirmation and/or activation letter or some products can share the same one.
- Notification e-Mail. The License
Manager allows you sending e-Mail to the group of customers from the “Customers”
page. Not available from the evaluation version.
- Embedded license file. License
file currently can be used as embedded resource in the application. It can be useful
for the applications that uses “Unlock Key” licensing schema. In this case you don’t
need to distribute any external files with your application.
- Import information about purchases
from the auto-response forms. If you sale your products by the internet store or
e-Commerce server (like RegNow, ShareIt! etc.) then you get order confirmation letters
from them. You can copy and paste information about the purchase on the field by
field base, but it’s more comfortable and easy just to copy-paste a whole letter
to the form and allow License Manager to import it to the system.
