"Entitlements Management with Enhanced Partner Portal"
4/5
What do you like best about Thales Sentinel Software Monetization Platform?

We use the Monetization platform primarily for entitlements management. It's a decent platform helps with generation, managing, revocation. We have also onboarded some new products recently and ventured into Enhanced partner portal and excited about this capability. I like it that the Sentinel platform is backed by a large organization like Thales who works on constantly improving the platform. The UI/UX could use some improvement.

What do you dislike about Thales Sentinel Software Monetization Platform?

I would love to create support request from within the EMS instead of having to log into another support community site, having to upload data and screenshots etc. If the support portal was embedded within EMS then it's a quick reference to the problem statement as it will be an integrated experience.

"Flexible business models create a variety of licenses"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Thales Sentinel Software Monetization Platform?

We provide a variety of license types in an on-premise environment. This is very useful in an FA environment and allows for flexible configuration of future business models. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thales Sentinel Software Monetization Platform?

It is not yet possible to recover licenses when a PC breaks down in an on-premise environment. Since the lifespan of a PC is shorter than that of other FA devices, the cost of responding to customers continues to incur. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
