Licensing-as-a-Service for Software Businesses That Need to Move Fast
From designing every detail to being operational from day one
Building a licensing system from scratch is a bit like moving into an empty apartment. You can design everything exactly the way you want, but it takes time, experience, and ongoing effort before it is truly ready to live in.
A move-in-ready apartment, by contrast, lets you start immediately. Everything essential is already there, following proven standards. And if you can still adapt the layout and replace individual elements later, you get the best of both worlds: speed without long-term compromise.
That is precisely the philosophy behind CodeMeter Licensing-as-a-Service. It gives software vendors and intelligent device manufacturers a ready-to-use licensing foundation that accelerates time-to-market, while preserving the freedom to evolve license models, license container strategies, and commercial rules as the business grows.
The Business Challenge We Address
Modern software businesses are expected to launch quickly, scale globally, and support diverse commercial models, from perpetual licenses to subscriptions, trials, and feature-based offerings. At the same time, licensing must work across offline systems, network environments, and cloud-connected deployments.
Designing such a system individually offers maximum control, but it often slows down product launches and consumes internal resources that are needed elsewhere.
CodeMeter Licensing-as-a-Service closes this gap. It provides a structured starting point with preconfigured license models and predefined container types that cover the most common use cases out of the box. From there, adaptations and extensions are possible at any time, without reengineering the entire licensing setup.
What You Will See in This Webinar
This webinar is deliberately practical and business-oriented. Rather than relying on extensive slide decks, we will spend most of the session directly inside the solution, showing how CodeMeter Licensing-as-a-Service is used in real scenarios.
We will explain the available license container types, which ones are offered within CodeMeter Licensing-as-a-Service, and why specific presets exist. You will see how these choices support different technical and commercial deployment strategies.
We will then walk through the supported license models in detail, explaining how they are created, issued, renewed, and evaluated over time. Special attention will be given to reseller scenarios, including different ways of delegating license creation or assignment while maintaining transparency and control.
In addition, we will clarify the pricing logic based on active containers, explaining when a container is considered active, empty, or free, and how this impacts costs. The session concludes with a look at reporting capabilities for both containers and licenses, enabling data-driven decisions.
