With Steinberg Licensing, you can simply download your purchased software, run it, sign in with your Steinberg ID, and you’re up and running right away. It only takes a couple of minutes - and if you are an existing Steinberg customer, you probably already have a Steinberg ID. Signing up for a Steinberg ID is as simple as entering your email address, choosing a secure password, and verifying your new account. Steinberg Licensing is an identity-based license management system, where your identity as our customer is at the heart of everything. Over time, as new versions of our creative tools and instruments are introduced, our entire product line will use Steinberg Licensing. For example, single-user licenses can be activated on three computers, so you can easily run your software in your studio and on the road.Įarly 2022 we began the transition from eLicenser to the new Steinberg Licensing system. Steinberg Licensing provides greater convenience, more flexibility, and enables you to use your Steinberg software in new, more powerful ways. But times change, and our customers have been asking us for extra freedom and flexibility. I've never had an issue with the ilok or the ilok2 so far and of people I've worked closely with the only issues have been either losing them or sending them through the washer in a pants pocket.For many years, Steinberg products have used our eLicenser system, with its combination of the USB-eLicenser hardware key and the Soft-eLicenser software key, and it has served us and our customers well. And for the unreliable part I guess we've just had different experiences. Plus a lot of their bigger clients like major post houses and studios and whatnot certainly aren't going to be pirating the software. Photoshop is probably the most pirated program out there but you don't see Adobe just stopping their effort to fight it. As far as the piracy is concerned the same could be said for plenty of other software companies. I have a desktop and a laptop and I'm not always using my own system so if there is a plug in or something I like to use that the person who's rig I'm using doesn't own I can just bring my ilok, install the plug in, and then use it while I'm there instead of having to buy a second copy of the plug in. Personally I like how the ilok system works much better than the alternative most other software uses of being locked to one computer.
