¶ Licensing
CredoID is licensed by separate entities and modules. You can buy basic CredoID package and separately get entities or modules according to your needs.
Every purchased license is lifetime.
You get free 1 year updates with every purchased license which can be extended later.
Entities:
- Readers
- Locations
- Inputs & Outputs
- Cameras (requires presence of compatible VMS, such as Digifort or Lensec Perspective VMS, licensed separately)
- Mobile devices
- Elevators
Identification count is not limited and you don't need to buy it separately. It will be set to 99,999 with any license.
Modules:
- Scripting module
- Security module (includes ASB CCS MusDo intrusion alarm support)
- Map module
- Card designer module
- Active directory (scheduled imports) module
- Triggers module
Triggers are limited to 100 by default, but can be lifted by request. They are not licensed as entities, it's a single module purchase.
You can order license at https://shop.midpoint-security.com or contact Sales directly.
¶ Local license Activation
Every license is fixed and hardware ID is used to determine a particular host. Although license is static, you can always ask support team to re-issue license if you are planning to migrate or change hardware.
Where high availability is required, we offer a second, 1:1 equivalent, license at 50% discount for redundancy / failover setups.
CredoID will ask you to activate license on the first launch.
- Use a pre-activated license : Use this option if you reinstall CredoID and already have existing license. It doesn't require license key if hardware ID remains the same.
- Activate a new license number online : This option is used when you buy a new license and receive a key from our sales. Activating license will tie it to current
hardware ID. - Use demo license : You can activate 30 day demo license which includes all available modules and allows you to use 2 readers and 100 identifications in total.
- Activate offline using license file or a token : Alternative option when CredoID is hosted in closed environment. Send
hardware IDto our support or sales team and they will get back to you with license file for offline activation.
