License Transfer

One of the advantages of a modern, automated license management system is the license flexibility it affords both the ISV and end user. License borrowing is a good example.  In this case, a licensed user may have need to work outside the network for an extended period but still require access to the software. A flexible license management system enables the user to “check out” the network license from the license server for a predetermined period of time and then “check in” the license to the server pool when they are done with it. The borrowed license is locked to the user’s computer and does not require any communication with the license server during the borrowing period. When that time has elapsed, the license automatically becomes invalid for the receiver and reverts back to the original sender.  

Additionally, most modern license management systems allow files to be manually transferred between machines and devices that are not yet connected to the Internet. For example, a license can be manually transferred to a dongle for activation on a non-connected machine.
