What do YOU use to manage your exe licensing and upgrades

[IanSh]

Hi there,

I am managing a few programs with around 100 users. There are a couple of key areas I am looking into to start including in the deployment:

1) Licensing the software 

2) Managing upgrades e.g. new releases (including moving to new version of LV). Currently a mail flyer is sent, I'd prefer it to be auto-detecting updates.

Consider some PCs may not be online. 

I'm interested to see what methods/tools other people use, and how you rate them. Paid for is fine (and expected)

Thanks in advance.

As no one has replied, here is my list of possibilities so far:

Third-Party Licensing and Activation Toolkit (could handle licensing but not upgrade detection)

Build, License, Track (seems to do everything)

Wirebird Labs Deploy - This won an award in 2013, but it seems to have disappeared, is no longer on the tools network...

I will evaluate all these but don't want to miss anything else out there.

Anyone got experience with these or have other solutions?

This is on my design roadmap within the next couple years.  Unfortunately I don't have an answer right now but I'm interested in the dialog.  Thanks for bringing it up and I'll look at some of your references.
