License key for FileMaker solutions

How do you create licenses for your own Filemaker projects? This task is taken over by the new FM Registrations. FM Registrations creates unique and encrypted license codes with which your customers can activate your Filemaker solutions quickly and easily.

Multiple licenses for standard solutions

The typical application for FM registrations concerns standard solutions that you want to sell multiple times. For example, if you have brought an address management system, a CRM solution or any other Filemaker project to market maturity, then it is then a matter of simple licensing and activation for several customers. You can publish a test version with limited functionality on the Internet, which can be activated with a license code. After purchasing a license, you provide the customer with an activation code.

The option of «licensing» software almost always includes a registration of the licensee and a definition of what exactly should be activated. For example, the following scenarios are conceivable:

  • Protection of your own software
  • Activation of a full version
  • Activation of modules or functions
  • Activation of an update
  • Activation of a new expiry date
  • Activation of further users
  • etc.

 

Registration, activation and configuration

FM Registrations allows several things at the same time: The application has an integrated address database for licensees, it allows the activation of a Filemaker solution and also allows the configuration of your software with the help of information from the license key.

All tasks are well documented and can be easily integrated into your own solutions using the example file.
