I love nearly everything about Keygen. > > **Cons**: Sometimes, I wish there was a search in their docs but that's probably less important now with agents anyway. > > Great\! Keygen has provided all the tools we needed to implement licensing in our product with a few different licensing models. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a licensing solution\! ----- ### "Never being so glad with a 3rd party critical infrastructure provider\!" — 5.0/5 > **Alejandro** | *12 August 2021* | Broadcast Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Integration with our product was fast, all the licensing requirements that we needed were easily implemented with KeyGen. Support to get this done was superb, documentation is clear, and they keep on adding features that we found appealing and thus allow us to improve our licensing model on a regular basis. Pricing is very reasonable and the platform is super reliable (HA)\! We could not ask for more from KeyGen\! > > **Cons**: The built-in reporting tool could be more configurable, maybe have filters to see which licenses are due each week/month. But we can do those queries through the API, to feed a dashboard of our own, so not a real issue. When we started 3+ years algo implementing customized feature activation on a license and off-line licensing were not available. But all these have been addresses and now it rocks\! > > Overall they are a great partner to trust all our licensing needs to. If you need to send them a support email, a senior technical staff member will answer back in no time. I can only hope that the Microsofts, Googles and AWS of the world would be as responsive and pro-customer as KeyGen is\! ----- ### "Keygen is helpful for binary/release distribution" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *21 October 2022* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: The team/\[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] is exceptionally responsive. > > **Cons**: It's sometimes too slow to upload/download artifacts. ----- ### "Keygen is the perfect solution for self-managed license integration" — 5.0/5 > **Coleman** | *17 May 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like how robust the API is. And the documentation is very thorough. I had a custom WooCommerce plugin developed, to communicate with a custom solution on my licensing server, that interacts with Keygen to help manage our user's software license for macOS desktop apps > > **Cons**: I would like to be able to set up a notification system for errors in API requests ----- ### "All working as intended" — 5.0/5 > **Max** | *30 November 2024* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It works, dashboard is handy, haven't had any issues at all. Docs are good. > > **Cons**: Could use some more comprehensive metrics. Currently making API calls to pull out data and plot myself. Stuff like cumulative plots, filtering options. > > Nice and smooth\! Good docs, all worked as inteded ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/120007/keygen?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/120007/keygen) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
