Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jaap B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Super stable! Which is very important for our company to grow. Instead of a home-grown licensing module, we've decided to purchase an external solution that would quickly help us to implement various options for licensing. This has been an excellent choice and helped us greatly. Customer support is top-notch. They are responsive and open to feature requests. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros We've been with Cryptlex since 2018. They have a proven track record of being a stable and dependable solution for software licensing. It supports every license type we need. It has a modern API. And it is quick and easy to deploy. #### Cons The dashboard could use some more advanced analytics features. #### Reasons for choosing Cryptlex + Good documentation + Well built + Modern API + Supports all major Operating Systems + Responsive Customer Support --- ### Cryptlex Review - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Laurent W. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: International Affairs - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used other for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Flexibility #### Cons Too expensive. Your new plan is a rip off. --- ### A solid and extensive licensing service - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered From the start of our proof of concept to rolling out our new license model, Cryptlex were supportive and understanding , no rush to work through our evaluation period whilst we built the code to be sure the solution worked for us. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros A very well documented API and different options for the Lex Activator code. Also a very responsive support team. There's tremendous flexibility to use their solution as needed and we especially liked the API to be able to send and receive metadata from our customer installations as well as to connect SFDC to synch metadata into our business workflows. #### Cons It's hard to find fault with our experience using the product or the company, they really made everything easy to deploy. --- ### Easy to integrate into my product, operations is seamless and reliable, tech support is top notch - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Mitch B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I needed a licensing solution for my audio application and plugin that was reasonably priced, had a C++ library to easily integrate, and an operations portal (dashboard) that allowed for easy management of users and licenses. I also had a complex product configuration and licensing scenario in which when I had questions Cryptlex was able to answer in a timely manner with the right solution. The GitHub library of examples really helped me quickly integrate LexActivator into my C++ application. A dozen or so lines of code were required to get it working. And once working, it has continued to work seamlessly since. I also like that is available on virtually all platforms as it was a requirement for my product. #### Cons In my use case, there is nothing lacking with Cryptlex solution. It does what it advertises very well. There were no blockers in my project. #### Reasons for choosing Cryptlex I looked at over a dozen product/solutions over several months and had all but given up on finding a licensing solution that would meet my requirements. Cryptlex was recommended to me by another company in my industry indicating that have had a good experience using the product, saying it was flexible and rock solid. Cryptlex ticked all of the boxes for having a C++ library that I can easily integrate into my app, on multiple OS platforms and devices. Fantastic having GitHub code examples on how to create, activate and manage a license. I had a complicated licensing scenario where a single product could have multiple instances on one computer and/or multiple computers and/or multiple OS's. Again easily solved with Cryptlex. The defence in depth strategy is best practice. One can also test and get going using Cryptlex at virtually no cost. This allowed for in-depth product testing without making a long term commitment. After 6 months of using Cryptlex, I am happy with my choice. The product works as advertised, easy to implement, easy to manage, rock solid service and tech support, all for a reasonable price. After using it for +6 months, I am glad I chose Cryptlex. --- ### Symetri - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Mattias L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. Very good #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros We needed a quick and easy way to get the crypto part of our licensing as we only have an SSO account login service - not a full license system #### Cons sadly didn't fit in our SSO solution, so we couldn't use user assigned license and needed to handle that part our own #### Reasons for choosing Cryptlex We didn't want a full blown license system, we wanted the crypto help to our existing SSO solution and this was one of the best options, its had good solutions of the 4 things we needed: single-license, multi-license, trial and offline activation. Not many of the other contenders had all 4 and the ones that had all 4 also was more of a full license system. #### Reasons for switching to Cryptlex We lost the person with the knowledge of the software and it was very expensive for the little use we had and wanted a less complicated system with lower learning curve --- ### Cryptlex Review - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Steve W. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. This is the only LAAS product we found that could satisfy our requirements for silent licensing, and floating-concurrent seats. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Provided a very flexible floating-concurrent model for integration with our C# application. The Rest API is very easy to use, so that end users have "silent licensing", they are unaware of the Cryptlex service operating in the background. #### Cons The security around the Web API key could be improved. #### Reasons for choosing Cryptlex Cost and functionality. The other products we looked at would all have required customisation to satisfy our needs. #### Reasons for switching to Cryptlex We did not want to operate a cloud service for licensing, and our internally developed service was inflexible and difficult to maintain. --- ### Great Licensing Platform - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We have been using the Cryptlex platform for over 5 years now and could not be happier with the solution. Stability and price wise. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The Cryptlex platform is very easy to set up and integrate into your applications. it is also quite easy to integrate with Payment processors like fastspring. What I most like about it is the ability to get it with your apps. #### Cons Altho it is not a major drawback, currently, Cryptlex does not support UWP (container) apps, but I was told that they will in the future. --- ### Feedback requested from Cryptlex - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Karen v. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros For our purposes, the cost and effort to integrate with our software was relatively low. In addition I would like to mention we were allowed to stay on the legacy plan when the price of monthly plans were updated - thank you very much for that. #### Cons Manual effort on my part is required to send invoice and receipt to finance. It would be nice to be able to automate this process somehow. #### Vendor response Thanks for the review. You can contact us and share your finance team's contact point. Replied August 2021 --- ### Powerful and affordable product - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review.
