Read Case Study

"We had been using license tracking software at Marshall Space Flight Center for several years and come to depend on the information that it provided. The software we had been using was discontinued and its replacement product was dramatically more expensive. Upon searching for a replacement, I discovered License Statistics from X-Formation.

License Statistics provides all the functionality we need at a considerable savings over all its competitors. We use many different license products from a wide variety of vendors and it would have cost substantially more to track all these licenses with any other software.

License Statistics has worked well for our needs and X-Formation support has been superb." Brian GriffinMechanical CAD Support Manager, NASA / MSFC

"When we were evaluating copy protection and license management companies, X-Formation were the only viable vendor offering a Windows CE/Pocket PC solution that met our requirements. Deployment has been easy; we simply set up our build configuration the way we want it, and then AUTO-X does its thing: its automatic security injections save us from having to insert protection manually, and its exclusion capabilities ensure that the time-sensitive code is not affected. AUTO-X has proven to be easy to implement, highly customizable, very good value for money - and entirely unobtrusive: our customers will never know it's there unless they're doing something they shouldn't be!" John BelliDeveloper, Refrigerated Transport Electronics, Inc.

"As a leader in diesel engine technology, Perkins Engines has many in-house programs to perform design simulation and analysis. These applications needed to be protected at a reasonable cost in a mixed Windows and Linux environment and without a great conversion effort. We chose the LM-X product and have been happy with the performance of the license system, the ease of integration and the helpful response of the X-Formation staff." Paul HanksSenior Engineering Team Leader, Perkins Engines Ltd.

"X-Formation provided us with a licensing solution (LM-X) for our software that is both flexible and strong. Support has been excellent and we have not regretted our decision."Matt M.Director of Applications, Tuscany Design Automation, Inc.

"We are very satisfied with the solutions provided by X-Formation. Their licensing software is both powerful and flexible. X-Formation also provides superior customer service and is acutely aware of the needs of both their direct customers and the end users."Bjarne KnudsenLead Developer, CLC bio A/S

"As a start-up software developer we were looking for a flexible, cost-effective licensing solution that could grow with our needs. X-Formation fit that bill perfectly, and with their extremely responsive technical staff we've been able to implement LM-X much faster than expected." Achim StremplatTechnical Director, Spielwerke

"After evaluating other monitoring tools, I found that License Statistics has the best cost/performance ratio. Other commercial products are expensive to use when you need to monitor many vendors, and they cannot monitor various different license servers. On the other end of the spectrum, free tools have no maintenance or enhancements. In contrast, License Statistics took less than a half hour to install, lets me monitor a variety of license servers, and has excellent support."Dietmar EberthKoenig und Bauer AG

"With 6 different servers, more than 500 licenses from 4 vendors, and about 700 potential users, it was essential that we monitor our license usage in order to define a purchasing strategy for our software. License Statistics offered us a comprehensible, visual tool that met our needs for a reasonable price. A significant benefit for us is the fact that all data is stored in databases, so we can analyze a large quantity of data in various ways and produce all the reports we need. License Statistics has been easy to install and use, and X-Formation's product support has been reliable and helpful."Clara Alonso Fdez-CoppelTragsatec

"iTrinegy was searching for a cost effective, flexible and strong licensing software for our INE for Windows network emulator range and after searching the market we decided on LM-X. LM-X has an excellent approach in licensing individual features of an application and also allowed us to automate the licensing. Its level of encryption meant that we could be confident that once we had licensed the software to run on one computer the license could not be moved to another. The technical support has been excellent and allowed us to rapidly integrate and deploy our software."David Skingsley iTrinegy

"SRI International has been evaluating license system for a new line of software. Our key criteria were cross-platform (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X), ease of use and complete in term of features. We did want the ability to generate time limited version, floating licenses and MAC address limited. LM-X can do it all. We found during our evaluation that X-Formation was extremely helpful and we went from evaluation to a product release in less than 1 month." Regis VincentProgram Manager, SRI International

"I have to tell you how satisfied I am with License Statistics. It works very well and is so very easy to administrate."

Joakim BrostenHPC System Specialist, ABB AB - Corporate Research Sweden

"License Statistics has been working out extremely well for us. We use the software to actively minimize the license usage of our highly expensive software and appreciate that the software shows us license utilization so we can track the actual usage. Last year alone, it saved SBM Offshore over $10,000 USD by preventing unnecessary expenditures. We recommended it to all our partners so they can share in our success story." Charles S. BellIT Manager, IT Services, SBM Atlantia

"LM-X has been an excellent replacement for FLEXlm. The interface from both an end user's as well as from a developer's point of view is very straightforward. The functionality meets or exceeds that of FLEXlm and the support from X-Formation has been very good."John LuDirector Software Tools, VeriSilicon

"We at AMEC have been extremely pleased with the valuable data made available to us through License Statistics. Used for over 500 users and at several locations, License Statistics provides us with a reliable means of keeping track of our software utilization over a period of time as well as giving us real-time usage reporting."Steve BlackwellAMEC

"We chose X-Formation as our license technology provider primarily because we were unhappy with the lack of responsiveness and support we received from our previous provider. We have since successfully released our software with the LM-X license manager to major OEMs in the Auto, Aerospace and Rail industries. We have been particularly pleased with the progress X-Formation has made in terms of new capabilities and robustness."Christoph OrtmannDirector Industrial Solutions, VI-grade GmbH

"We are satisfied with our choice of LM-X License Manager. LM-X proved to be easy to integrate, easy to use, and customizable. With cross-platform capabilities and features such as support for various types of licenses, it satisfies our current needs and leaves room for future extensions of our licensing scenarios." Dirk Muthig, Ph.D. Division Manager, Fraunhofer IESE

"We started to use LM-X to protect our software in 2008. To date, it has worked very well and the technical support has been very responsive and helpful."Aake Nordahl, Ph.D. CTO, Umetrics

"LM-X is the basis for Virtual Engine licensing. It provides all required features such as cross-plattfom, multiple licensing models, easy integration and friendly coexistence with other licensing systems. The LM-X based licensing is easy to work with from the customer's perspective. We are very content with this solution, LM-X has been the right choice and X-Formation's support excels through short response times."Dr. Ir. A.P.J. Voncken, Senior EngineerFEV Motorentechnik GmbH
