Ratings and Reviews
Simple and gets the job done.
I was kind of surprised to find the lack of software license managers for Mac. I used to use 1Password but hate subscriptions and was looking for an alternative. Açana License Manager definitely gets the job done if you are strictly looking for a software license manager. My only complaint was a tiny bug that would not save the Customer/Registration Name and Email. I would go to another license, come back to the same license and have the information be disappeared, forcing me to type it back up. Other than that, the software does what its suppose to. There is a lot of potential in this app and I hope the developer continues improving the software.
Importing from LicenseKeeper worked for me
I saw a few reviewers state that they couldn't get Acana License Mgr (LM) to import their data from the discontinued LicenseKeeper (LK) app. I had no issues.
I exported from LicenseKeeper (still using Mojave since LK is 32-bit) as XML, however, I never even needed that XML option. Acana LM has a free app on their site to handle the import from LK. Downloading and running that, it asked me to both identify the LK app location and the location of the database (located in the Application Support folder). After that, it imported perfectly (from what I can see) with icons, notes, etc.
I do wonder if Acana LM needs the LK app to be able to run in order to do the import. In other words, if you're already on a version of Mac OS X that supports only 64-bit apps, maybe the import will not work even if you have the LK app still on your hard drive.
Anyway, for those like me who were tentative to purchase with the reviews saying that importing didn't work, know that it worked for me. It was $9 well spent since I need to upgrade to Catalina soon and need a 64-bit license management app.
False pretenses!
I bought this app specifically because LicenseKeeper is no long supported. Acana claims to be able to import all the data from LicenseKeeper and there is a free utility to convert data at the Acana site. Try as I might, the free utility in conjunction with the app DO NOT import all the data, only a small portion of the data. In addition, the import directions for the free app are incorrect. The path to LK data is correct. However, the path to the import folder are incorrect and are as follows: user/library/application support/Acana. No Acana folder exists and, as of yet, support has been nonexistent.
Nonfunctioning application is useless to me.
