Summary: Reprise Software Inc. is pleased to announce that the leading provider of software solutions for the sheet metal forming industry, AutoForm Engineering GmbH, has selected Reprise Software’s Reprise License Manager (RLM) for its various engineering design product lines. AutoForm Engineering will use RLM to enable secure license models that will allow it to package and price its software to match its customers’ preferences.
The Reprise License Manager TM (RLM) offers innovative license models and policies to Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) while better addressing the needs of enterprise software end-users. Although RLM resembles popular licensing systems in architecture and administration, its advantages are apparent in its simplicity, performance and value; three under-served areas in the marketplace today. RLM is used widely in the scientific and engineering software markets.
AutoForm Engineering’s Development Manager, Andreas Krainer said, “The technical evaluation of RLM proved that RLM was more than capable of handling our licensing needs. RLM’s simple design makes implementation easy and straightforward. On the business side, we are comfortable that Reprise has the experience and know-how to support us now and in the coming years as we deploy our software with RLM.”
“We are very pleased that AutoForm Engineering has selected the Reprise License Manager as its license management solution,” said Matt Christiano, Reprise Software’s founder and president. “Industry leaders, such as AutoForm Engineering, are realizing the benefits of RLM’s unique technical innovations within a design that is already familiar to most developers and end users.”
RLM supports a core set of license types with license policy removed from the software and placed into the license key – in order to make integration and support easier for Independent Software Vendors, and to make the meaning of the license more transparent to the end-user community. Perhaps most important to end users, Reprise Software is committed to fully documenting the usage data format and partnering with third party report writer vendors to support it in order to expand the available sources of end user reporting tools.
