RealityPlan License

To use RealityPlan, a valid license is required. Our licensing system is designed to be flexible and efficient, employing a floating license model to optimize license usage across users.

How the RealityPlan License System Works

1. License Pooling

   • All available licenses are managed through a centralized license pool. Licenses are dynamically assigned and released, depending on user activity.

   • When a license is not actively in use, it is returned to the pool, making it available for other users.

2. License Assignment

   • When you launch RealityPlan, a license is automatically assigned to your computer from the license pool. This license remains in use as long as the application is running.

   • If you close the application, the license is released back to the pool, allowing another user to access the software.

3. Floating License Model

   • The system is based on a "floating" license approach, meaning licenses are shared among multiple users rather than being tied to individual accounts permanently.

   • The number of concurrent users who can access RealityPlan is determined by the number of licenses in the pool. For example, if you have 10 licenses, up to 10 users can use RealityPlan at the same time.

Handling License Limitations

• If all available licenses are currently in use, additional users attempting to launch the application will not be able to access RealityPlan. In such cases, an error message will inform the user that no licenses are available.

• Once a license is freed (i.e., a user closes the application), it becomes available in the pool again, and the next user can launch the application successfully.

Error Messages and Troubleshooting

• Error: "No Available Licenses"
  This message appears when all licenses in the pool are in use. To resolve the issue:

  • Wait for a license to become available as other users close the application.

  • If licenses frequently run out, consider purchasing additional licenses to accommodate more concurrent users.

Best Practices for License Management

• Monitor License Usage
  Regularly review your license utilization to ensure you have the appropriate number of licenses for your organization's needs.

• Plan for Peak Usage
  If your organization experiences times of peak usage, ensure you have enough licenses to accommodate the maximum number of concurrent users.

• Close the Application When Not in Use
  Encourage users to close RealityPlan when it is not needed. This helps free up licenses for others and optimizes the usage of available resources.
