Versions and features of the Nalpeiron Licensing Service (NLS)

NLS is API based allowing you total control of the look and feel of your application while providing a significantly higher level of anti-piracy protection. In addition, you have the benefit of a total solution that enables you to not only offer Internet based activation but a publisher control center at the back-end that enables you to manage your licenses as you wish 24x7x365 without any engineering.

NLS is built for Visual Studio 2008 and is platform agnostic, working on Windows and Mac platforms (with Linux coming soon). Of course it’s compatible with most of the languages you’re likely to be using, including Visual Basic, Visual C++ and C#, Borland C++, Delphi and XCode. The tools are simple to deploy and work with all types of installation tools like Installshield and is even integrated into Wise Installation Studio.

The NLS should not be compared to other simple activation products. It has considerably more features and power. For example you can select from a range of licensing scenarios that enable you to ship a 'vanilla' product and then control the features set and functionality entirely 'on the fly' from the server side, automating this process via web services. This means you can ship a single binary and enable or disable features and rights any way you want, at any time, without the need for end user re-installation, including trials. We call it Total License Agility.

The Nalpeiron Licensing Service pnf client side infrastructure is based on a patent-pending technology called Protect-n-Forget (PnF) that doesn’t store easily alterable files on the user’s computer or alter the registry. Neither does it require a connection to the Internet to monitor licenses. Protect-n-Forget (PnF) eliminates the need for complex alphanumeric license keys, and makes it easy to move a license using floppies, USB Flash Drives and our web server.
