License Management Solutions
Our License Management solutions are more than just software.
Many engineering and IT tools have different licensing models. Because of SPK’s over 25 years of experience with these tools, we have solutions that help large and small organizations get the most out of their tool investment.
From complexities around “floating or named” licenses, to installation and usage statistics, companies waste time and energy in management around these applications. Our team has solutions for different types of software which produce real return on investment.
License Management Options
Technology continues to change, and the software and SaaS market have many different models for licensing. But the management of your tool stack could be costing you even more than expected. Here are just a few examples of what SPK does for license management for our clients.

Usage Monitoring
LicenseMiner is a cloud-based solution. So you can access it from any web-enabled device. Setup is simple, and takes just minutes. Yet LicenseMiner is powerful. It monitors any FlexLM-based application—including Cadence, Mentor Graphics, Synopsys, SolidWorks, and PTC, to name but a few.
Software License Asset Management
Many organizations have software licenses but are not sure what is being used, what isn’t being used, and what it’s best position is with regards to license renewals. SPK helps manage the ROI and management of software through inventory and probing information to maximize ROI.
