SOFiSTiK Web Licensing#

SOFiSTiK Web Licensing is a web-based alternative to a local CodeMeter license server that requires an active internet connection. It is available for SOFiSTiK products released 2026 and later.

It enables organizations to provide licensed access to SOFiSTiK software without operating their own licensing infrastructure.

Users sign in with their SOFiSTiK account, while License Administrators manage users and license assignments through the SOFiSTiK Licensing Portal. A user can be signed in on multiple devices, but a license can only be used on one device at a time.

If you are interested in using SOFiSTiK Web Licensing, please contact your local sales representative or SOFiSTiK sales partner.

For License Administrators#

Each organization has one or more users with the Owner role and License Administrator rights for the SOFiSTiK Licensing Portal. The portal is where you manage users and licenses for your organization.
