OpenLM for ESRI ArcGIS now better handles ESRI ArcGIS Desktop Extensions licenses and by that provides even better floating licenses usability.

Eliachin, Israel - May 20, 2009 - OpenLM announces that the ESRI Desktop floating licenses capabilities of OpenLM for ESRI ArcGIS has been extended in order to allow better usability of ESRI ArcGIS Desktop Extensions licenses. The new functionality overcomes a built-in disadvantage in the way ArcGIS Desktop software handles extensions. The default behavior is that when a user loads an extension it will never unloads until the user actively does that. With the new release of OpenLM for ESRI ArcGIS all licensed extensions can be unloaded on session shutdown, assuring that extensions are only be consumed when they are really needed.

This new functionality is added to the existing functionality of OpenLM that allows organization to get at least 40% more usage out of their existing floating licenses pool. The savings generated by OpenLM Software are mostly contributed by OpenLM's smart timeout functionality.
