Sharing License Among Several Offices

Applies to LoadComplete 4.97, last modified on May 20, 2019

You can use LoadComplete Floating User licenses inside wide-area networks (see Using LoadComplete in WAN). This gives you the ability to share one LoadComplete license among different offices of your company.

By default, the search settings, which LoadComplete uses to find the License Manager, work only in local networks. So, if you are going to share the license, you may need to modify the search settings or organize a virtual private network. See Using LoadComplete in WAN.

Before you decide to share a license, please think of how the license will be used. If you decide to share the license among different offices of your company, the License Manager PC will reside in one of the offices, and computers from the other offices will connect to this PC to check for the license. This makes the other offices dependent on the office where the License Manager PC resides. This scheme may be inconvenient in some cases. For example, it may be inconvenient if the offices reside in different countries worldwide.

Sharing a license makes sense if one of the offices uses LoadComplete frequently and others use it from time to time. If several of your offices use LoadComplete heavily, we recommend purchasing individual licenses for each of the offices.
