Nuget License key - can it expire or become invalid in the future?

Hi Syncfusion team,

We've recently moved to using the Syncfusion nuget packages and I have a question about the nuget license key that we now need to include in our code.

Can this license key expire? For example I generated our nuget license key, by logging into my account (thats part of my company setup which gives me a license) and putting that in our code base. What if in the future I leave the company and my syncfusion account is 'deactivated' or just gets removed from company so no longer has access to a license - what happens to the license key that is 'baked into' our code base? Is it still valid?

Similarly what if in the future my company decides to not use syncfusion and terminates our license agreement - will our previously released software continue to work??


Thanks

Hi David, 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support.  
Find below the response for your queries regarding license key, 
 
Q1) Can this license key expire? For example I generated our nuget license key, by logging into my account (thats part of my company setup which gives me a license) and putting that in our code base. What if in the future I leave the company and my syncfusion account is 'deactivated' or just gets removed from company so no longer has access to a license - what happens to the license key that is 'baked into' our code base?

A1) We have checked the license key generated from your account. It is a valid Windows Forms license key for 19.1.0.54. You can use this license key for this particular version and product. It won't be expired even your account was deactivated. You can continue to use this license key in your development work for this particular version 
 
Q2) Similarly what if in the future my company decides to not use syncfusion and terminates our license agreement - will our previously released software continue to work?? 
 
A2) Yes. Your control will continue to function properly with this license key and it won’t affect anything in your already released software. 
 
Please note our license keys are version and product specific. So, please ensure that respective product and version’s license key is registered in your application.
