PowerCom Dongle License Management
PowerCom is committed to continue its innovation and development with our focus on maintaning our business reputation as one of the leading providers of reliable audience response systems in the market today. We are always working hard to make use of suggestions by users to improve our software’s functionality and stay up todate with the recent versions of Microsoft Powerpoint and other systems associated with it.
PowerCom users with a dongle license are entitled to one year of free license and software upgrades, and their existing licenses will never expire—presenters can continue to use their versions of PowerCom’s software indefinitely.
In order to enjoy upgrade we do every 2 months, users should upgrade their license after the one year of free upgrades has expired. Please note that the dongle version should be equal or greater to the Powercom application version or it won’t work.
0\Note: The PowerCom dongle license matches only the first and second digits of the PowerCom version number, and ignores the third digit of the version number. For example, PowerCom v2.34 will work with dongle v2.36.

For example:
If your dongle feature ID is 11 then it is a PowerCom Reply WorldWide dongle license and will work ONLY with PowerCom Reply WorldWide V2.31.x (include V2.32).
Notes:
- PowerCom version number consists of 3 parts. Dongle license engine only matches the 1st and 2nd part and ignores the 3rd part. The reason PowerCom uses a 3 parts version number is to avoid frequent dongle upgrade. So if your dongle is V2.31 it will work with all version of 2.31.x (x from 0 to any number).
- PowerCom M2M (Moment to Moment) license includes a PowerCom Reply Plus license with the same keypad count.
