CodeMeter Licensing

Why does Notch use CodeMeter licensing? #

Notch have selected CodeMeter because it gives you more options:

  • Licenses aren’t tied to machines - your CodeMeter USB license dongle goes in any machine. Portable and flexible.
  • Licences can be deployed immediately once you have your CodeMeter dongle
  • Licences can be deployed onto ANY CodeMeter dongle, so if you already have one you won’t need another. We’re saving the earth one dongle at a time.
  • It’s highly secure, your licence, your competitive advantage
