摘要

A method for determining a licensing policy of using a digital product by a group of users, comprises conducting a tolerant licensing policy during a trial period, monitoring usage parameter(s) of the digital product during the trial period, examining the performance of the licensing policy according to samples of the monitored parameter(s), and determining a new licensing policy according to the examination. Optionally, the newly determined licensing policy can be monitored during a subsequent period, after which the licensing policy can be examined and adjusted accordingly. According to one embodiment of the invention, the group of users is determined manually. According to another embodiment of the invention, the group of users is determined automatically, by e.g. the N users that have used the product in general or for a predefined period.
