Standard Cloud Licenses

Nalpeiron Cloud Licenses

Cloud licenses provide a number of advantages over USB Dongles. They can easily be activated and deactivated on-line providing an easy way to share a single license with colleges in different facilities and they are not as prone to being lost or damaged. Cloud licenses use a license code consisting of a string of numbers and letters that can be used to activate SA on a particular machine.

 

On-line Cloud License Installation

To activate a cloud license, simply open SA. If no license is available, you will see the following activation as an option on the screen:

Enter User Details to help identify the active license user. This does not need to match the purchaser. This is used to help identify and contact the person currently using the license.

Press Activate within the Cloud License Activation Dialog to complete the registration process.

 

 

Moving a Cloud License to a Different Computer:

Ensure your computer is connected to the internet before moving a cloud license to a different computer.

Within SA navigate to Help Tab> Software License > Management > Cloud License and select De-Activate License

Once the license is deactivated, it can be used on another computer by following the above activation process.

 

Note... Regarding License Hierarchy:

SA uses a sequential preference in license detection as follows: 

  1. USB Dongles

  2. Cloud Licenses
