Advanced license management for All My Papers (AMP)

The AMP license manager, provided by All My Papers, is a crucial tool for managing licenses for specialized applications, such as check processing and document imaging software. When your business relies on these essential tools, proactive monitoring is key to maintaining high productivity and full compliance.

OpenLM offers specialized integration with the AMP license manager, ensuring you gain reliable usage statistics and robust reporting to optimize your software investment.

Understanding AMP licensing: Node-locked and concurrent

The AMP license manager is a freely downloadable tool used for the installation, viewing, and removal of licenses from a PC or server.

What is AMP license manager?

The AMP License Manager is the mechanism used to tie All My Papers (AMP) application software and Software Development Kits (SDK) licenses to individual workstations and servers. It handles both temporary licenses (for trial/support) and long-term licenses (for production deployments).

AMP licensing schemas

AMP supports several licensing models, which can be managed by the License Manager and the License Server Manager (LSM):

Standard license (Node-locked): Intended for single-user, non-Terminal Services environments. The license is typically tied to a specific computer.
Server licensing (Concurrent): Supports shared multi-user access of AMP technologies, enabling concurrent users through Terminal Services.
Distributed licensing (Concurrent/Floating): Allows installation of AMP-enabled applications on multiple workstations/servers that share licenses installed on a single server, supporting concurrent users.

The License server manager handles concurrent use by checking out a license when an AMP application starts, incrementing the used count, and freeing the license upon termination.

OpenLM’s solution for AMP license monitoring and analytics

OpenLM is designed to interface with the AMP license manager to monitor license usage and obtain statistics. This is achieved by parsing an XML file that the AMP license server periodically generates in response to a query.

OpenLM provides essential intelligence by turning raw usage data into contextualized, easy-to-read reports in the EasyAdmin web application.
