Q: Why do I need Licence Manager?

A: Licence Manager controls your use of AiTS programs.  All your licence information is stored on a hardware key dongle.  This means you can easily install the software on a number of different computers and simply move the dongle between computers to use the software.

Alternatively you can use the dongle over a network and operate the software concurrently from a number of different computers, depending on the number of products you have purchased.

Licence manager uses encrypted information stored in the dongle, to determine when your licence expires, what programs you are permitted to run and how many copies of a program you may run concurrently.

In network use, Licence Manager maintains a list of all active users.  This list is updated as users open and close licensed programs.  Once a licensed program has obtained a lease from Licence Manager to run a program, it is maintained until the program is closed by the user.  This enables a 'first come first served' use of the programs over a network. 

All this occurs behind the scenes and normally requires no action by the user.
