Its 2020 and we are still using Dongles- Frustrating

Same.

I like the dongle. It sits in a dock mounted under my desk giving anyone who comes into my studio and plugs into the dock access to all my iLok and eLicenser licenses.

They should allow both the dongle and whatever other thing they might do.

I feel like the dongle should work over the network though since I have a multi-room recording studio with 3 different computers. Having to move it around the facility is annoying but it’s still quicker than de-activating or transferring a license online from one computer to another. I don’t have to do it too often. Most of the time I’m moving the laptop from one room to another also. I’m probably going to end up with multiple Cubase licenses. I’m the only one using Cubase here at the moment though. In fact, I’m the only one here period because of Covid. That will change though.
