Software Producers
In FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications, a software producer is a company that makes software products that use a licensing system to control access to product functionality. The product functionality is defined in the product’s features, which are licensed to your enterprise by the software vendor—the company that sells software. The licensing terms are defined in a contract.
The software producer may also be the software vendor—that is, the same company may both produce and sell its software products to customers.
