Licensing

To work with Axidian CertiFlow, you must obtain a license key.

Axidian offers the following license types for Axidian CertiFlow:

• general license,
• add-on licenses.

General license

General license lets you manage all devices supported by Axidian CertiFlow:

• smart cards and tokens,
• virtual smart cards — TPM Virtual Smart Card and Windows Hello for Business,
• Registry cards.

You should purchase a general license for every Axidian CertiFlow user.

A license is locked when you assign or issue at least one smart card to a user. You can issue or assign two cards and more to a single user — it will still lock only one license. 

A license is released when you withdraw all cards from a user.

If all your licenses are locked, you can buy extra licenses. You can revoke and reassign licenses.
