Licensing can be configured as perpetual, time-limited, subscription, or metered, and a license can either be node-locked, or allow for concurrent usage, also known as floating licenses. LicenseSpring also provides offline activation and license check capabilities, so that software can be distributed to clients whose devices do not connect to the internet. To make it easy to connect to the LicenseSpring service, we provide SDKs in Java, C/C++, .NET/C\#, Delphi, Swift/Objective-C, as well as a License API. LiscenseSpring currently integrates with Stripe, FastSpring, and 2Checkout for License Fulfilment, along with providing a Management API for issuing, exporting, and editing licenses in almost any scenario. > > Verdict: Rated **4.9/5** by 34 users.

Trial, time-limited, perpetual licenses can be issued easily. > > **Cons**: It would be great if it offered more pricing plans that are suitable for small companies to mid-size and big companies. ----- ### "Easy to implement, a reliable product with very good customer service." — 5.0/5 > **Jason** | *20 June 2024* | Printing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The licensing product does everything we need. Is easy to use and so far extremely reliable. It offers some security at an affordable price and doesn't intrude on the user's experience of our product. > > **Cons**: The portal is, in the main, adequate, it can take one or two more clicks to find the information you want sometimes but we haven't found much to complain about. And if we've needed a bit of extra functionality we've used the API to provide it or LicenseSpring have added it quickly. > > I was involved in selecting a lighter-weight licensing solution for some of our products. We chose LicenseSpring for a number of reasons, it met our requirements, was easy to integrate using their .NET/C\# API, wasn't very expensive at the tier we needed and offered a good compromise between security and ease of use. Support was very good from the outset and remains very good. We have never needed support for end-user use. LicenseSpring have responded positively to new feature requests in the portal and SDK queries. It was important for us that LicenseSpring offered options to update users licenses in the field from the portal and this works well in practice. ----- ### "Satisfied with LicenseSpring" — 5.0/5 > **Charlie** | *27 March 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: We needed to interact with the team at LS to learn how to best use the flexibility of the service to best meet our business needs. They were supportive and responsive. > > **Cons**: Using the support port is clumsy. I felt it was important to use the support page and not email directly to LS individuals. But when I did that, often the "case" would be idle for days until I directly emailed the individuals at LS. > > Experience has been generally positive. The service is flexible enough to meet our varying needs. When we ned to do something, typically there is a way to make it work. And individuals at LicenseSpring (e.g. Edmon) are always there to help out. Being a small company, the service is quite expensive as we do not ship a lot of products. The features we need require a more expensive subscription which adds to our operating costs. I hope that fees do not grow to the point where we cannot afford them any more. ----- ### "A usable product and attentive supplier" — 4.0/5 > **Ted** | *14 March 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The product is feature-rich and user friendly. The supplier is supportive and agile on feature development and customer success. > > **Cons**: We have used the product for license tracking at customer location (on-premise). Deploying it in this way required some back\&forth with supplier and was more complex than we anticipated. The supplier also introduced a breaking change in one of the versions that took us by surprise (a one time incident). > > Above average. An agile and supportive supplier. ----- ### "Exactly what I needed" — 5.0/5 > **Jan** | *20 June 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use Lots of functional code examples in different programming languages for integration. Integration with Stripe and subscriptions. > > **Cons**: Specifically, for one-time purchases in Stripe, one must create an Invoice first, which needs to be paid in order to generate the license. > > Easy to use and excellent custom service. Has never had any downtime. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/205582/licensespring?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/205582/licensespring) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
