Network Licenses

Helix delta-T6 has a new Helix Network License Manager software for multiple concurrent users. This licensing system uses a License Manager program installed on a server computer which controls the number of concurrent users on the network through a TCP/IP port on the server. This means the software can be installed on as many computers as required and it is then activated on a specific computer via TCP/IP communication with the server and License Manager program.

Prices of the multiple user Network version depends on the number of licenses and the mix of Dynamic, Professional and Standard versions of the program. Please contact sales@helixtech.com.au for pricing.
