If you want to share a Hedge license without sending out your original license key, there is now a way to do exactly that. This gives users control over who has access to their license for as long as it’s needed.
You can share an activation directly from your license without ever handing over your original key. When you share access with a collaborator, Hedge generates a temporary, dedicated key on your behalf, one that you control completely.
Sharing a license used to be a manual back-and-forth process. Now it’s simple. You just enter your collaborator’s email address, hit share, and they’ll receive their own temporary activation key, completely separate from yours. Your original license key stays private. The collaborator doesn’t need an account or a login; they just activate with the key they’re sent.
A shared key draws from your pool of activations, just as activating on one of your own machines does. To keep your own license safe, you can share all but one of your activations.
