"I have used Zentitle for about 10 years and it is definitely the best licensing I have worked with in my support career.
I have worked with around 10 different licensing platforms and used many others with the products I purchased.
None have been as reliable, easy to use and implement for support and customers alike."

Zentitle delivered on this and more. Enough tools to provide us with what we need to integrate with our existing business systems.
EUP is easy to set up giving our users more control over managing and distributing our licenses."

Maintaining an in-house solution would be expensive and time consuming.

Wasn't that many years ago where virtualized environment we're still relatively uncommon.
Spring forward to today, and really virtualized environments are everywhere, whether it's full VMs, docker containers, or even individual desktops now. A lot of desktops running Windows eleven, for example, present themselves as being virtual And under the covers, they are, in fact, a virtualized environment. So we wanted to build in really great support for a virtualized image detection and decloning, and to ensure that you get properly paid for every single seat of the license that you sell to your customers. The way we do that is with a technique we call the nonce. So think of the knot as being kind of a transient secret. So every time there's a communication between the application back to the Zentitle Cloud, as part of the license refresh.
We will generate a brand new notch that comes back from the server that is then registered to that individual in So if that instance stores that nonce and then makes a subsequent request, they have to provide that nonce again that nonce comes in as part of that request. We'll see that they actually did provide the right nonce. So we'll make that a validated authenticated use of that seat of the license.
And we will then generate a brand new right, which will then go back to the client. And so that will continue through that conversation.
Now, if The process gets activated so they get their nonce, then they clone themselves. So both process one and process two will then have the same secret.
The first of these that then do that refresh request will have that be validated by the Zentitle Cloud, and then that will generate a brand new nonce back to whichever process made that request.
But now one of those two processes will no longer know the current nonce that was just refreshed. And so when they do a refresh, They won't have the correct nonce, and the request will be denied. Now when the request is denied at that process, they realize, Hey, we don't have a seat because we lost it a clone, etc.
Then the application can decide, Hey, I wanna try checking out another seat against the license So that's up to you as the vendor to define what kind of policy you want to enforce when we've detected that a clone has already grabbed that seat. Away from that process.
