5.2.4 - September 12th, 2016
FREQUENT UPDATES RELEASE
We’ve been updating how licensing works in the Redgate products. You’ll now be prompted to login with a Redgate ID to activate a newly installed product, or to upgrade an existing product to a new major or minor version. This unlocks better license management, and makes it easier to use Redgate software on multiple machines. Once a product is activated with a Redgate ID, we’ll be able to show you your licenses and some basic information about usage, and provide the ability for you to deactivate unused licenses. For now the license management functionality will only be available through the license management portal on the website. Down the line, we’re planning to offer some of these capabilities from within the software itself.
