It's very developer friendly while also being intuitive enough for our sales team to go into the portal to create licenses when necessary. It's been incredibly stable and has kind of faded into the background of our app, which is what you want for licensing. On prices and plans, the dev tier let us try it out for free and the paid tiers are all very reasonable. I never felt like I had to make a huge leap to get the value I needed. > > **Cons**: We hit one annoying hiccup that caused a little bit of chaos for us. The API rate limit on the dev tier bit us. We knew we were over, but we got this message as an email: \> If we see this usage trend continue over the next 2 weeks, we will automatically upgrade your account to the next appropriate tier to support your current request volume. If this was just an occasional spike in volume, no worries, and no need to upgrade yet\! That was on Friday. So, we thought we would be ok to wait until Monday to fix it. But that message was inaccurate and our API calls started getting rejected over the weekend. The upside: 1) It was an easy fix to just upgrade our plan 2) \[sensitive content hidden\] responded promptly to my complaint about this personally and agreed that that message wasn't right for the free tier and that it would be fixed. > > We evaluated several licensing solutions and Keygen won because of it's broad feature support, dev friendliness, and compatible pricing. So far we've been very happy with it as a product. ----- ### "I love Keygen" — 5.0/5 > **Dale** | *19 February 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Keygen is a flexible and well design API that is easy to use, well documented, and has great support. 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\! ----- ### "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 ----- ### "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. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.il/software/168916/keygen?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.il/software/168916/keygen) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
