What our Customers say about us
 Nalpeiron
serves some of the largest names in the Software
Industry but many we cannot list for confidentiality reasons, to
learn more contact us.
| "Nalpeiron’s solution was clearly the best on the market. Stable, secure, easy to use, easy to integrate into our product, and reasonably priced made it the perfect choice."
|
| "Crypkey,
the licensing solution in our SECSIMPro product was unstable, and constantly
required the re-activation of license codes. In
many cases, the reason for loss of license was unknown, and these issues
were burdening our tech support resources. This became unacceptable,
especially when it occurred with one of our most important customers,
Intel. The downtime to reactivate these licenses affected
productivity for our customers. So, we decided to replace our
licensing solution in SECSIMPro with more stable product. Nalpeiron’s
solution was clearly the best on the market. Stable, secure, easy to
use, easy to integrate into our product, and reasonably priced made
it the perfect choice. A beta version of SECSIMPro with
Nalpeiron as the licensing solution was tested at Intel and they were
completely satisfied with it. We are now going live with this new SECSIMPro
and are confident our stability problems with the product are now behind
us, thanks to Nalpeiron. We are so
satisfied, that we are now looking at Nalpeiron as our sole licensing
solution for future products too."

"Nalpeiron
PRO-Tector is a solid and effective solution. It is very easy
to protect any software application. We use PRO-Tector to avoid
unauthorized uses of a field service application that we distribute

| "With Nalpeiron we discovered that they had a larger possible feature set than the competition and were so easy to implement."
|
"FFEI was looking for a competent solution to provide secure internet based software licensing, at a reasonable cost for a low cost consumer product. With Nalpeiron we discovered that they had a larger possible feature set than the competition and were so easy to implement. We managed using their protection system to secure our solution within just a few days. When we did not understand anything we received excellent support, both from the commercial and the technical sides of the business. We see their Licensing system where you can purchase licenses and use them to unlock your products as an easy and secure way for us to support both our dealer and onlines sales. We would recommend this solution to any other software vendors looking for a secure licensing solution."

| "PRO-tector is the only system which gives a credible guarantee of software protection and which works on different platforms."
|
"I chose PRO-tector to protect my new software product, ShareMaestro, for which the IP consitutes most of the product's value. PRO-tector is the only system which gives a credible guarantee of software protection and which works on different platforms. The range of functionality provided with PRO-Tector, such as temporary licencing for evaluation and proof of removal, is extremely valuable when dealing with the praticalities of client implementation. I have also found the support form Nalpeiron to be very strong. You do not get shunted to a third world help-desk. ShareMaestro is now successfully launched and is regarded as the leading UK share valuation system."

| "Nalpeiron will always be our first choice when implementing software based security."
|
"Our first attempt at integrating security in our application from another company took over three days and five phone calls to tech support and it never fully worked.
With PRO-Tector, we were able to fully integrate the licensing software into our application in about five hours with no tech support phone calls and it works very well.
Nalpeiron will always be our first choice when implementing software based security."

| "Since adding the Nalpeiron protection we have experienced a 15% growth in international markets, 8-10% of which we attribute to having the Nalpeiron protection in place."
|
"Prior to adding the Nalpeiron protection to our MetaStock retail product line, growth within international markets was extremely challenging due to historically high software piracy rates. Since adding the Nalpeiron protection we have experienced a 15% growth in international markets, 8-10% of which we attribute to having the Nalpeiron protection in place. Nalpeiron’s PRO-Tector offers one of the better client-side software protection models we’ve seen in the market today."

| "...secure in the knowledge
that our licensing is robust enough to survive a standard reformat
of a troublesome pc and not having to spend resources maintaining our
registration system when it’s not our core business. All thanks
to Nalpeiron."
|
"We’ve
used copy protection in our products right from the start and have
worked with a couple of vendors over the years. We found that we were
experiencing a lot of additional support when it came to customers
wishing to move their licenses, hardware ID’s changing prompting
a re-registration and maintenance of our own registration system. Thinking
that “there must be a better way” we searched the web for
offerings and all of them were just another variation of the other… until
we found Nalpeiron. Now we’re looking forward to giving control
of the customers license back to them, being secure in the knowledge
that our licensing is robust enough to survive a standard reformat
of a troublesome pc and not having to spend resources maintaining our
registration system when it’s not our core business. All thanks
to Nalpeiron."

| "There is no doubt that our choice to use the copy protection provided by Nalpeiron was the single most important sales decision we have ever made."
|
"Greenbrier Graphics resisted implementing copy protection for more than twenty years. We always felt copy protection was an imposition on our loyal customers, and a logistical problem for us. When we finally realized the extent our software was being pirated, we decided to copy protect our next update. After downloading trial versions of copy protection from three different publishers, it became obvious Nalpeiron served our needs best. Their copy protection software and code was easy to implement, was robust with features that made it user friendly for our customers, and was very secure. Our new, copy protected update is bringing profits far beyond our expectations. Now we see evidence everyday that Greenbrier Graphics suffered tremendous losses through widespread piracy. There is a satisfaction in knowing those who have taken advantage of this small company can never do so again. They want our update, and they are paying for it. There is no doubt that our choice to use the copy protection provided by Nalpeiron was the single most important sales decision we have ever made."

| "Modifying my Installshield installation to include all of the components the user
needs was also a breeze."
|
"We were looking for a better solution than passing out the USB dongle keys to protect our software. Since most of our business is in the South and Central American market, a solution that didn't involve shipping anything to our clients was preferred. If a USB key was lost or broken, then it becomes fairly expensive to overnight a package to that market.
In addition, compared to other solutions we looked at, I was able to make the modifications necessary to protect the main program and three optional features in less than one day. Modifying my Installshield installation to include all of the components the user needs was also a breeze. Within two days I had made all of the changes needed to install everything."

"We are pleased to be working with Nalpeiron because the technology provides software publishers with effective copy protection and at the same will help keep their end users happy as it helps ensure licensing compliance. Licensing compliance is an important issue for our customers and is a hot topic for major corporations as they work on the implementation of new internal license audit processes that follow guidelines and standards, such as SARBOX. Given Nalpeiron’s VSIP status and close integration with Visual Studio 2008 – customers and publishers alike will benefit from using this innovative SAAS hosted solution."

| "If you need a company that you can count on, Nalpeiron is it!"
|
"Being an OEM software distributor, our company has been beleaguered by piracy and illegal downloads. As we are short of engineering resources and need to focus on our core competence, we started looking for a copyright protection solution outside of the company. After 45 days of exhaustive research, we decided on Nalpeiron's Protector SDK. Nalpeiron's product actually wasn't the most affordable option on our list (although still very reasonable) nor does the company reside in our preferred location of U.S. for easy communication (same time zone). But what impressed us the most were their service and their ability to make their customers feel important. While price is always crucial, we prefer a company that will be there for us after sale is completed. Within few days of communication, they contacted us by phone to make sure all of our questions were answered, and they provided superb follow up and recaps of each discussion. Throughout the evaluation period, they were accessible both by phone and by email, not to mention they even scheduled a conference call w/ our chief product engineer during the time we specified although it was after their business hours. And to our pleasant surprise, the same level of responsiveness continued even after the sale. Each question we asked was always responded to in a very professional and timely manner. If you need a company that you can count on, Nalpeiron is it!"

| "After having Nalpeiron in place for 6 months now the product has paid for itself a few times over."
|
"Having tested multiple .NET license solutions Nalpeiron is the clear leader. Once the decision was made to use Nalpeiron it was quickly apparent that we made the right choice. Within 1 hour we had incorporated Nalpeiron into our C# project. The support has been fantastic and they have gone the extra mile every time. The second best thing is that they listen to the customer and respond. I.e. I sent an email stating a way to make the web interface easier to navigate. Within 24 they agreed and made changes to the web site. Great support, quick implantation, and easy to use documentation with Nalpeiron we got more than we paid for. Thanks Guys for making my licensing decision the right choice."
Update January 2008 - "After having Nalpeiron in place for 6 months now the product has paid for itself a few times over. Once the new licensing schema was release our client licenses jumped 18% from just our existing customer base. The support call volume from licensing problems has all but vanished. This alone saves the support team on average 3.5 hours per week.
The benefits to our customers have also become very apparent. With our old licensing software the customer was given 1 license code per license purchased. If they had 10 licenses they would receive 10 different codes. Now they get 1 code and can use it as many times they want until they reach their purchased license limit. We have calls from our customers that say they love not having to call support for licensing problems or having to keep track of what license belongs to what computer.
As the dept head it is nice to let my people focus on what their jobs are and not having something as simple licensing waste time. Again I would like to thank Nalpeiron for making my licensing headaches go away."

"At DTG Training Systems we have an analysis and training application for real estate investors. Our customer base has a tendency to network extensively and “share” with each other. So it was important for us to be able to control the distribution of our product. We researched the options out there and chose PRO-Tector for several reasons. It has a relatively low start up cost, and relatively low cost per license. We made the decision to decrease the price of our product so the cost per unit for protection was a concern for us. The product is simple for the end user and simple on the implementation side. It was easy to integrate into our product and we were able to trial the product to make sure it would work for us. There was support and communication throughout the process. Nalpeiron followed-up after the purchase to make sure the product was working to our expectations. With PRO-Tector it is easy to modify the parameters of the licensing. In addition, the license usage can be tracked and modified through an online interface, which is very convenient. We would recommend PRO-Tector to other software companies looking for a flexible and secure licensing system."

"Camwood were looking for a technology which enabled a secure lockdown of the business tier of a new n-tier client server Windows application. In addition to install/uninstall security we were looking for a solution which enforced a 'click charge' licensing model. Nalpeiron's PRO-Tector proved to be both flexible and robust and allowed the release of a secure demo version of the product. The Nalpeiron team have also proved very responsive and supportive through trial and implementation."

"We recently released Xllerate™, a Microsoft® Excel based Add-in, which allows anyone to automate their Excel tasks. We wanted to add copy protection to our software and also allow a 30 day trial evaluation period. We started with your competitor, InstallShield. However, we learned they no longer supported the trial version capability. InstallShield recommended that we try your product. We were happy to discover your product was exactly what we needed at a very affordable price. From purchase to product integration, Nalpeiron provided excellent support and consulting services. "

| "If you want an effective, and flexible tool that will protect your software from piracy, and a company that will respond to your questions and requests, then Nalpeiron is it, period!"
|
"With more than ten years of experience in implementing copy protection with our software, we have finally found a comprehensive, simple, and effective tool. We have used various software protection in the past, and recently used a combination of software and hardware protection. This method was effective, but it was also costly, and support intensive. Hardware keys have an inherent problem with drivers, trouble with different operating systems, and can be damaged by users.
The PRO-Tector system eliminates our former protection products by giving us all of the flexibility and power we could ask for. Our product is developed with MS Visual Basic 6, and we found it quite simple to incorporate the PRO-Tector software with our application. There is ample documentation and readily available technical support to help incorporate this tool with your own software. We were easily able to create our own license interface to facilitate customer renewals of our software, and the included license manager interface is called to allow customers to extend trial time, activate, move, or deactivate a license. The hosted Internet license feature is ideal for customers of all sizes who want to easily move a license from one computer to another. These licenses are tracked by the server and prevent any unauthorized use. The web control panels make it easy to keep track of who is using their license, and also allows full control of the number of licenses available.
With customers of varying sizes, we can control how many seats are permitted to load a given license number. With yearly renewals, this simplifies the renewal process tremendously, for you and the customer. We would normally have to give out 25 different codes for a larger customer, and each code would have to be entered the day it was provided. With PRO-Tector, one code can be given to the whole company, and its users can enter the one code at their leisure. This makes life so much easier for our sales department, and the customer.
Nalpeiron's response to sales and tech support questions was far better than most companies in existence today. Now that they have opened an office in San Francisco, I'm sure it will be even better. If you want an effective, and flexible tool that will protect your software from piracy, and a company that will respond to your questions and requests, then Nalpeiron is it, period!"

"We have recently released 2 new versions of boujou bullet, the automated motion tracking system used widely in film and TV production and other areas such as architecture and engineering.
We were looking at alternative methods of licensing for bullet SD with several motivating factors including, obviously, security and cost of implementation however our primary goal in this case was maintaining ease of customer use and of our own license management. The success of 2d3 products is based, in no small part, on their core philosophy of automation and ease of use and we aim always to maintain this in all areas of product use, including licensing. This was particularly true in the case of bullet SD since it is designed specifically to be a one click solution.
We have had some experience of the Nalpeiron licensing systems with previous 2d3 products and with the fairly recent instruction of the web based management system it appealed even more, allowing us to allocate license codes to customers quickly and easily and to keep track of those licenses in a straight forward way.
Some of our other products use a hardware lock licensing system for and shipping times can occasionally become an issue with dongle based methods. With the Nalpeiron code we can have a customer up and running as quickly as it takes to send an email.
In developing bullet SD We had a fairly clear idea of the kind of numbers we wanted initially to ship and were able to tailor our Nalpeiron purchase package to include the number of licenses we required, across Windows and Mac, from the outset and therefore cost appropriately and maximise return. Our friends at Nalpeiron were, as always, helpful and flexible when it came to arranging an appropriate package for our needs with bullet SD, allowing us to get something which pretty closely suited our needs for a product in a relatively niche market."

| "...we have not received a single customer support call about product
activation."
|
"When it came time for SoftCafe to update our software activation procedure for our next
generation of Windows Vista compatible products, both our former supplier Aladdin
Knowledge Systems, and our new hopeful Macrovision, dropped the ball.
Aladdin
informed us that the product they had sold us just a year earlier would not allow our
customers to activate under Vista rendering any software that included Aladdin’s HASP
instantly obsolete.
Macrovision, our next hopeful, then promptly announced that their
current product would likewise, not operate under Windows Vista, and that they would
be forced to take the drastic measure of discontinuing sales and support, leaving their
customers without a Vista solution.
Luckily, we discovered Nalpeiron’s PRO-Tector, which we were told by Nalpeiron,
would not only operate flawlessly under Vista, but would do so at less than half the cost
of both Aladdin’s HASP and Macrovision’s Trialware and give us more flexibility in
both the integration and live monitoring of activations. And, as icing on the cake, PROTector
offered a simple, one-step de-activation procedure, now fast becoming the
industry standard, but which was unavailable from either Aladdin or Macrovision.
Along the way, from conception to product release, Nalpeiron provided us with top notch
support for every question and minor issue that arose, and their product is so transparent
and quick, that we have not received a single customer support call about product
activation."

"Nalpeiron support PI Energy and Emissions, who use Nalpeiron software to protect their Energy and Emissions products, used widely by many of their oil and gas sector clients. These include most of the major operators in the North Sea and worldwide.
PI found PRO-Tector reduces unauthorised usage, will allow easier protection in future, now we’re familiar with the methodology. Price was good considering the functionality provided and speed / efficiency of support. Product range was of less interest as our application is quite specific and the selected product met our requirements after assistance from yourselves."

"Our company offers advanced portfolio analysis and asset allocation software. Before deciding how to protect our product, SmartFolio, we had conducted small research of available solutions in the market.
As SmartFolio is digitally distributed, we were most interested in those products which offered simple internet activation procedure. Other positions included price (as our project has started mostly as a hobby, we couldn't afford to spend significantly more than a couple of thousand dollars to protect it) as well as protection quality, flexibility, non-irritating user experience and ease of programmatic implementation. As our product lies in the middle price range (USD 500-5000), we immediately threw away all wrapper-based solutions as not sufficiently secure.
Finally we were left with two alternatives: Protection PLUS and PRO-Tector Pro. The key factor in our decision to buy PRO-Tector was that the latter appears to be much more intuitive, simple to use from the customer viewpoint, stable, and flexible. Buying license for just one product, we were able to offer to our clients two different SmartFolio licenses along with a trial version. What is more, now we can easily customize a license according to specific customer needs.
May be the most sound argument for PRO-Tector is that we haven't received from our users not only complaints but even questions regarding the licensing procedure. Undoubtedly, PRO-Tector is amazingly well thought-out product both for developers and, which is far more important, their clients".
[Наша компания разрабатывает передовое программное обеспечение для анализа и оптимизации инвестиционного портфеля. Прежде чем выбрать механизм защиты и лицензирования нашего продукта, называющегося SmartFolio, мы провели исследование программных средств защиты, представленных на рынке.
Поскольку SmartFolio продается через Интернет, то в наибольшей степени мы были заинтересованы в таких решениях, которые бы предлагали простую процедуру интернет-активации. Также существенной была цена продукта: наш проект начинался скорее как увлечение, поэтому мы не могли себе позволить потратить на защиту больше двух-трех тысяч долларов. Помимо этого мы обращали внимание на качество защиты, ее гибкость, а также на степень «прозрачности» процедуры активации для пользователей и, наконец, простоту программной реализации.
Так как SmartFolio находится в средней ценовой нише (USD 500-5000), то мы немедленно отбросили варианты «коробочной» (wrapper-based) защиты как недостаточно надежные. В конечном итоге у нас осталось две альтернативы: Protection PLUS и ProTector Pro. Ключевым фактором, повлиявшим на наш выбор, стало то, что ProTector Pro показался нам существенно более интуитивным, надежным и гибким. Одной купленной лицензии ProTector Pro оказалось достаточно, чтобы предложить нашим клиентам две различные лицензии SmartFolio наряду с полнофункциональной демо-версией. Кроме этого у нас появилась возможность в любой момент перенастроить лицензию в соответствии с пожеланиями конкретного клиента.
Возможно, наиболее значимый аргумент в пользу ProTector’а – это полное отсутствие у наших пользователей не только жалоб, но даже вопросов, касающихся процедуры активации SmartFolio. Без всяких сомнений, ProTector – это глубоко продуманный продукт как с точки зрения разработчика, так и, что еще более важно, с точки зрения потенциального клиента.]
