CodeMeter License Reporting - Full transparency on how your software licenses are used

As a software developer, you need to know exactly how your licenses are being used.
Who are your top users? Where are the opportunities for upselling or optimization? And are you still in control when it comes to compliance?

CodeMeter License Reporting (CmLR) gives you the answers. This cloud-based analytics tool turns raw license data into actionable insights. With real-time dashboards and clear visualizations, you can make smarter decisions based on real usage, not assumptions.

 

What is CodeMeter License Reporting?

CmLR is a reporting solution that collects and analyzes license usage data from your CodeMeter infrastructure. From a single dashboard, you can instantly see:

  • Where your software is being used (geo heatmaps)
  • How often and how long licenses are activated
  • Which products or modules are most and least used
  • Who your most active users are and where growth potential lies
 

These insights help you improve your license models, deliver better support and align your product strategy with actual usage.

 

Why use CmLR?

✔️ More transparency, for you and your customers
Make your license terms visible and clear. Build trust by sharing usage reports with your clients or internal stakeholders.

✔️ Data-driven business decisions
Spot upsell opportunities, usage gaps, or customers who might benefit from switching to a different license plan.

✔️ Faster, smarter support
See which customers or regions have unusual usage patterns. Reach out proactively and resolve issues before they escalate.

✔️ Stronger compliance posture
Automatically generate reports to demonstrate proper usage for audits and security certifications like NIS2, ISO 27001, or ISO 62443.

 

Key features

  • Interactive dashboards – Filter by time range, product, region, or user
  • Geo heatmaps – Instantly locate high and low activity regions
  • Usage trends – Spot patterns over time and act on early signals
  • REST API integration – Combine license data with your own analytics tools

Discover the new Wibu.Systems website

Smarter structure. Clearer content. Built for developers.

At Wibu-Systems, we believe technical content should be just as well-designed as the technology behind it. That’s why we’ve started redesigning our website, beginning with the three pages that matter most to developers like you.

Whether you’re exploring CodeMeter for the first time or you’re looking for a faster way to access our SDK, the new wibu.systems is designed to support your workflow, not slow it down.

What’s new?

A sharper homepage with less clutter

We’ve restructured the homepage around real user needs:

  • Fast access to key areas like Protection, Licensing and Integration
  • A clear visual layout to help you scan, click and move on
  • Straight to the point, just the essentials, right up front.

A redesigned CodeMeter overview

We know our customers don’t want buzzwords. So we cut the fluff and focused on what matters:

  • What is CodeMeter?
  • How does it protect your software?
  • What makes it flexible for developers?

You’ll find clearer technical explanations, simplified visuals, and practical use cases: all in one place. Whether you need protection for .exe files, containers, or embedded systems, it’s now easier to see how CodeMeter fits into your project.

A new SDK trial page

Trying CodeMeter should be easy. So we created a dedicated SDK page with:

  • A direct sign-up for the 60-day trial
  • A brief summary of key tools included
  • A Get Started guide that walks you through a demo protection

All tailored for developers who want to test our solution fast, without having to dig through endless documentation.

🧭 What’s next?

This is just the beginning. In the coming months, we’ll be rolling out more updates across the entire site, including technical deep dives, fresh visuals and use case libraries that help you get the most out of CodeMeter.

Our goal? To make Wibu.systems the go-to resource for anyone serious about software protection, licensing, and compliance.
