All-In-One Protector offers copy protection with all the advantages and flexibility of a software solution. However, there are some situations where a hardware protection makes sense.
•A product activation using a Serial Number is not possible or not favored. The user should be able to work instantly with the product
•Using one single license on multiple PCs and no online connection is available. The user can move the license from PC A to PC B using the USB flash drive
•Deliver a complete application on a USB flash drive - ready to go without the need to activate the software
•Marketing reasons - instead of receiving a CD, the user gets a USB flash drive with additional value for him
All-In-One Protector offers a unique protection feature using a standard USB flash drive. The license is bound to an individual criterion of the USB flash drive (different for each stick), which cannot be copied. It supports all the license options of a single user license like
•Evaluation options
•Multiple Modules
and additionally the option to define,
•on how many PCs the USB stick can be used or
•how many users can start the application
This is a very handy feature as you can control the usage of the stick.
The USB flash drive solution is much better than a Dongle:
•It is favorable - the price is only a fraction of the price of an Dongle
•The customer could even use his own USB flash drive. You can send out a Serial Number and activate the license on the USB flash drive using Online, E-Mail, Fax and phone activation. This is important if you deliver in multiple countries and shipping hardware is difficult
•In case of a hardware failure you can instantly issue a temporary license, where the license is stored on the local PC
All-In-One Protector combines the advantages of software copy protection with the advantages of hardware protection!
•The USB flash drive protection can only be used as a single PC / single user license. A network license is not supported as a PC cannot retrieve the hardware information of the USB flash drive when it is used on a server.
• Flash disks, Memory Cards, SD cards are not supported. They do not have a the special ID a USB flash drive has but they could be used with another ID:
•After the USB flash drive is inserted, you have to launch once the application (EXE) file. This registers the file extensions. Only after this step you can directly click on a protected file.
