## Reviews

### "I love Keygen" — 5.0/5

> **Dale** | *19 February 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Keygen is a flexible and well design API that is easy to use, well documented, and has great support. I love nearly everything about Keygen.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes, I wish there was a search in their docs but that's probably less important now with agents anyway.
> 
> Great\! Keygen has provided all the tools we needed to implement licensing in our product with a few different licensing models. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a licensing solution\!

### "All working as intended" — 5.0/5

> **Max** | *30 November 2024* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It works, dashboard is handy, haven't had any issues at all. Docs are good.
> 
> **Cons**: Could use some more comprehensive metrics. Currently making API calls to pull out data and plot myself. Stuff like cumulative plots, filtering options.
> 
> Nice and smooth\! Good docs, all worked as inteded

### "My Review of Keygen" — 5.0/5

> **Liang** | *16 September 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Sample code for integration. Comprehensive docs.
> 
> **Cons**: Default settings that can't be changed due to backwards compatibility concerns.
> 
> Overall great experience. I wish there is a way to introduce a new set of default settings (authentication method) that makes sense for me, while not affecting existing users and preserve backwards compatibility.

### "Never being so glad with a 3rd party critical infrastructure provider\!" — 5.0/5

> **Alejandro** | *12 August 2021* | Broadcast Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Integration with our product was fast, all the licensing requirements that we needed were easily implemented with KeyGen. Support to get this done was superb, documentation is clear, and they keep on adding features that we found appealing and thus allow us to improve our licensing model on a regular basis. &#10;&#10;Pricing is very reasonable and the platform is super reliable (HA)\! We could not ask for more from KeyGen\!
> 
> **Cons**: The built-in reporting tool could be more configurable, maybe have filters to see which licenses are due each week/month. But we can do those queries through the API, to feed a dashboard of our own, so not a real issue.&#10;&#10;When we started 3+ years algo implementing customized feature activation on a license and off-line licensing were not available. But all these have been addresses and now it rocks\!
> 
> Overall they are a great partner to trust all our licensing needs to.&#10;&#10;If you need to send them a support email, a senior technical staff member will answer back in no time.&#10;&#10;I can only hope that the Microsofts, Googles and AWS of the world would be as responsive and pro-customer as KeyGen is\!
