Install Estimate License Server

The Estimate License Server can be installed on any machine connected to the network to which all Estimate users have access. It can be, but does not need to be, installed on the same server that contains the Estimate Server application. The Estimate License Server and the associated server service must be running in order for users to access the licenses to the modules that you have purchased.

Use the following step-by-step at the computer or server console where the Estimate License Server will be installed.
