TrialPro

TrialPro Overview

Protect your applications the secure and safe way with an easy to use control you can add to any Microsoft® Visual project. Distribute your applications safely over the internet or on disc without having to worry about unregistered use.

Create demos, beta or trial versions of your applications by entering the appropriate information into the TrialPro property pages. Your application will have a unique serial number which is bound to the computer it is installed on. Register your applications as Full or “Lite” with unlock codes generated for each one. Enable a trial extension to give your customers a preset trial extension after they have contacted you for an extension code. TrialPro comes equipped with a configurable registration screen that can handle all the user input to make purchasing your applications a breeze. A purchase button is shown, if enabled, and can be set to contact any e-commerce site or E-mail address you wish. Drop TrialPro into your app and see how easy it is to license, protect and sell your programs.

With its easy to use property pages, convert a finished project to a trial or demo version in minutes. TrialPro is 100% software based with no additional hardware or services required to operate.

TrialPro uses its own encryption technique for data storage and recording, ensuring that your applications are protected by any attempts to defeat the unlocking mechanism. The unlock codes are generated on-the-fly only as they are needed. Even the formulas are encrypted in the actual code itself for added binary hacking. Advanced back dating protection also prevents unauthorized users from running your applications longer than intended. TrialPro automatically generates a product serial number when your application is installed on the end user's machine and up to 3 types of unlock key's can be used for each serial number. A secure transfer license window can be called so your users can move your application from one PC to another if desired. An unlock generator application is also included.

Create your own unlocking window or let TrialPro take care of the unlocking process for you with a customizable window which can include a purchase button to your desired e-commerce provider or web address, all with only one line of code.

With up to 6 different trial types at your disposal, you can limit your applications in a number of ways. TrialPro is royalty free and may be used on as many applications as you would like.

TrialPro operates in the background, the end user of your application will never know your program is being protected unless you want them to.
