License Manager
In the PRISYM Network version, the licenses are assigned dynamically via our License Manager. For this, the License Manager software is installed in the network on a server and activated for a number of users
You can then install as many PRISYM Design versions as you like. If all licenses are assigned, the next user will have to wait until another user terminates his PRISYM Design and the license is released
Citrix and Windows Terminal Server
In order to enable easy management of PRISYM Design Software, the License Manager can also be used with Citrix or Windows Terminal Server. In this version, the licenses will be assigned on terminal session IDs instead workstation IPs
The licensing model with Citrix/WTS can also be used, if you just want to access a virtual PC via remote desktop. This is not possible with our PRISYM Design workstation license, as this will block access via a Remote Desktop Connection
Fixed Licenses
For users who work primarily with PRISYM Design, you can assign a dedicated license for a specific workstation. Such dedicated licenses will no longer be considered for dynamic licensing
In order to obtain an overview of assigned licenses, the license manager provide reports for evaluation. For example, you can see in these reports how many licenses have been granted in a period of time
Network Printers
As PRISYM Design already supports direct network printing, for a printer installation you only need to assign an IP address. Through our native drivers with direct printer control, you don't need to install any Windows driver. This will also make administration of printers in the network easier
The current print jobs are visible to the user directly in PRISYM Design. We strongly recommend that printers in PRISYM Network are always connected via LAN. In principle, local ports such as USB, parallel port and the serial interface are possible. However, this increases administrative effort and contradicts the concept of PRISYM Network
Central Data Store
A central data storage for layouts, images and databases is already possible in PRISYM Design, but it is an important requirement for PRISYM Network. No local data should be stored on the workstations in PRISYM Network
If you want to customize layout design regardless of the printing system, you can use our generic printer. This printer driver offers most of all functions, but limit them to availability on all supported printers. Layouts made with this driver are printable on all printers
Access Control
In addition to the password protection for individual layouts, PRISYM Network also provides a complete access management for users. The simplest case is to assign rights for printing, layout design and for administrative tasks
As more advanced features, you can enable logging of layout changes and force users to add a comment for this change. Please note, that these functions are basic and not approved as a solution under GMP
