No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    Works perfectly for our needs, and we also like that the codes of the lite version and the API client are on GitHub. Thanks a lot for this great work!

    I’ve been using the Digital License Manager plugin, and I couldn’t be happier with it. It’s simple, effective, and does exactly what it promises—no unnecessary fluff. The plugin integrates seamlessly with WooCommerce, making it incredibly easy to manage and link licenses to products. The interface is clean and intuitive, keeping my dashboard clutter-free, which I really appreciate. One of the standout features is how straightforward it is to generate and validate licenses, even for someone without extensive technical knowledge. The licensing system is robust and secure, giving me peace of mind that my digital products are protected. Another thing worth highlighting is how the plugin avoids aggressive upselling tactics. It doesn’t overwhelm you with ads or constant nudges to buy premium features. Instead, it focuses on delivering core functionality that works out of the box. If you’re looking for a reliable solution to manage digital licenses, Digital License Manager is an excellent choice. It saves time, reduces hassle, and works perfectly with WooCommerce. Highly recommended!
