Norwood, Mass., (July 8, 2002) – Open Channel Solutions (OCS) has launched Poetic™ LT, an electronic software licensing delivery system that enables software publishers, channel partners, and end users to easily manage software licenses throughout their entire lifecycle.

Poetic™ LT offers publishers:

  • A 24 x 7, self-service web environment that results in reduced administration costs and increased customer satisfaction.
  • Software Key acquisition (including evaluation keys), host transfers, user registration, asset management and reporting.
  • A central repository of critical license and customer data enabling access to accurate and detailed information directly from the source.
  • Flexible architecture that supports multiple software locking technologies securing current and future investments.
  • Automated Fulfillment feature that generates subscription/upgrade, renewal notices, and promotional orders.
  • Simplified and flexible integration of license and customer data to client systems (ERP, CRM, portals, data warehouses, etc.).

“Publishers want to provide their customers with easy-to-use methods for managing electronic licenses and unlocking software over the Internet in a self-service environment”, according to Ed Rose, President of OCS. “OCS has over 11 years of experience in the distribution and management of electronic licenses. We introduced our first licensing application back in 1994. Since then, we have delivered what software publishers need to manage their businesses and better serve their customers. Poetic LT is a simplified version of our Poetic License product for publishers who need to manage only registration, authorization, and lifecycle management after the initial transaction has been made. We have designed LT to be quick and easy to implement.”
