A look at license4j.com

LICENSE4J provides a comprehensive software licensing solution for Java developers, encompassing a powerful licensing library, an intuitive web-based license manager, and a versatile license server. The solution supports various licensing models including perpetual, subscription, time-limited, trial, named-user, node-locked, floating licenses, and USB license dongles.

The library is engineered to abstract away licensing complexities, enabling developers to implement licensing tasks with minimal code. The web-based license manager offers a clean, user-friendly interface optimized for desktop and mobile devices, with tools for monitoring license usage, payment processor integration, and automated email notifications.

The solution is available in both SaaS cloud and on-premises deployment versions, with the same extensive features in both. For advanced requirements in restricted connectivity environments, an offline Floating License Server is available for direct installation within a customer's closed network.

License data is secured through cryptographic encryption and digital signatures using public key cryptography, preventing unauthorized alteration and tampering. Additional features include hardware fingerprinting, virtualization and cloud detection, custom license features, REST API, webhooks, and email notifications for license events.
