SDProget Leverages Thales Sentinel to Implement Flexible Licensing and Secure Intellectual Property

Boasting over 12,000 customers worldwide, SDProget is a leading electrical CAD (computer-aided design) software provider for industrial automation. The company develops products based on an AutoCAD platform for the design, processing, and documentation of electrical schematics. Their SPAC® software suite optimizes industrial automation design along with budgeting, controlling, and monitoring all stages of the process. SPAC® is used by design firms as well as university students studying engineering, architecture, or other design fields. 

Established in 1988 in Italy, by 2015 SDProget had reached the stage where their homegrown solution was not sufficient to adequately scale their licensing and software protection. As a result, they sought a commercial solution, leading them to Thales Sentinel.
