License Statistics v3.5 just around the corner

We’ll soon be wrapping up the long-awaited new release of License Statistics v3.5, which introduces many great new features and major improvements, taking the product to a whole new level.

As you may have learned from previous articles, one extremely critical improvement we’ve made is replacing the embedded SQLite database with an embedded MySQL database. This new database dramatically increases scalability, making it possible for even the largest enterprises to realize the benefits of using License Statistics.

The new MySQL database gives you the ability to:

- Handle over 500 million records
- Continuously monitor over 50 license servers
- Continuously monitor over 20,000 concurrent users

Additionally, we’ve left the database “open” and provide you with a reporting utility you can use to run custom SQL queries. Thanks to this powerful feature, you can generate virtually any report you can imagine.

Furthermore, License Statistics has undergone a complete facelift, making the software even more user-friendly and providing even better and faster point-and-click navigation.

And there’s more:

- Export your reports to different formats that suit your needs: PDF, XLS, CSV, SQL
- Tired of seeing adskflex or cdslmd in your reports? Now, you can change server and even feature names to more meaningful terms
- Stay informed about whether your server is up or down with server status notification
- Create and manage user accounts with authentication capabilities
- View “Most Utilized Features” on the front page of your reports to immediately see where your attention is needed

All this is just the beginning. Development for future releases is already well underway, and you can soon expect to see:

- Ability to import report logs for FLEXlm/FLEXnet and many other license managers
- Support for new license managers, such as HASP and SmartPlant
- Reports of combined license usage based on server groups and user groups
- License usage reporting by IP addresses
- Email notifications
