Who is Orion not for?

Orion may be an unsuitable technology if your requirements fall in any of the following categories:

• You wish to license-protect document content, for example CAD designs and other intellectual property, and you are not the developer of the document content viewer software. For this, you will need to develop or purchase digital rights management technology.
• You wish to license-protect third-party applications for which you have binary code but you don’t have the source code. Since Orion requires programmatic integration at the API level, the applications cannot be integrated with Orion.
• You are looking for a point-and-click out-of-the-box licensing solution that can be deployed instantly with zero programming and a zero learning curve. We do provide high-level client library APIs that facilitate application integration in as little as a few hours and provide a high degree of encapsulation of license integration know-how; however this still requires minimal integration by a software engineer.

From a business perspective, Orion may not be a suitable fit if you are budget-constrained but you don’t qualify for the Nephele subscription service.
