"We do our utmost to persuade our users to purchase licensed versions, so that they too can benefit from the very latest functionality. However, digital IP is at great risk. Since we opted to secure the software using Wibu-Systems technology, we have seen very little sign of software piracy. Furthermore, our marketing operations are closely geared to creating a “sense of community”, largely by organizing user meetings in the various regions."
“With the invention of the HMI/ SCADA systems, zenon was an important future-proof solution to develop right from the start. The challenge also included protection against piracy. COPA-DATA already found a suitable solution back in 1991: WibuKey. Since zenon version 1.0, the dongle protection demonstrated to be extremely reliable, which has in-turn resulted in a long-term cooperation. Meanwhile, we have now reached zenon version 7.11 and still enjoy compatibility with WibuKey, as well as with CodeMeter and CmActLicense. Wibu-Systems has proven to be a solid partner with robust solutions over the past 20 years. Especially in the industrial environment where products go through long life cycles, delivering reliability and compatibility is an invaluable competitive advantage.”
