Migrating to Software-Only Licenses for More Responsive License Management
The world’s premier shipping companies work with the software solutions of ABB Marine & Ports to get their vessels safely and efficiently to their destinations. A loyal customer of Wibu-Systems for over a decade, ABB has been relying on CodeMeter dongles to store the license keys for their ABB AbilityTM Marine Advisory System - OCTOPUS.The current version of the system is using Wibu-Systems’ robust metal-case CmStick ME, a perfect choice for the rugged conditions at sea. As satellite communications has made fast Internet connections at sea a common reality for maritime operators, the company is looking to move from physical to software solutions to streamline its logistics processes. |

US Foods avoids potential software license penalties with self audit
US Foods, a leading distributor of more than 350,000 products to over 250,000 customers, was facing a challenge with software license compliance across its 15,000 endpoints. The company was using a cumbersome endpoint management tool that required significant manual effort and time to collect and assimilate software installation and licensing data. The process was decentralized due to bandwidth inconsistency across different distribution centers, leading to a lack of control and systematization. The company was also facing the risk of costly software audits from vendors vigilant about protecting their licensing revenue and enforcing their agreements. |
