Determine licensed vs free versions
It's time to reconcile my licenses - we have a couple dozen licensed users, but the majority of our users were using the free version. This used to be easy to inventory since the filenames were different. Now that the versions are merged, how do I determine who is consuming a license? We are not using a central DB, so I don't think we even need licensed versions any longer.

Hello Rob,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I'm glad to assist you with your concern.
To access advanced data sources, the Remote Desktop Manager (RDM) license needs to be assigned to your user. This license unlocks features that are not available in the free version and allows you to manage your users, set permission on entry, check activity logs, and control who has access to your database and sensitive information.
Advanced data sources provide better user management, making it an ideal solution for companies to manage their database and users.
I suggest trying out SQL Express, a free advanced data source that can help you test its effectiveness. Here are some links that may be helpful for you:
