The Instance Monitor Library safeguards applications by limiting unauthorized multiple launches. By monitoring the active instances under the local network, this library empowers software developers to effectively regulate software access.
If you are a developer of commercial software, this tool is especially beneficial to you. By monitoring the local network, the Instance Monitor library identifies all running software instances. It uses a unique instance identifier, which is usually the Order ID, to control this.
If the number of running instances goes beyond the license limit, the software can either prevent the launching of another instance, or terminate some of the instances that are already running. It can also alert the end-user about the license agreement violation and advise them to purchase additional licenses. This kind of message is known to be effective in ensuring compliance with licensing agreements.
Many customers purchase just one license, but use it simultaneously on several different PCs. This has led to many instances where software companies have not made as many sales as they could, because of the ability of the software to be started on multiple stations without any restrictions.
With the Instance Monitor Library, developers can control the number of instances of their software that are running, ensuring that it matches the number of licenses that have been purchased. This can significantly increase profits for the company, and ensure that end-users are complying with the terms of the license agreement.
