Know your callas licensing is healthy before production stops
License Server Monitor is our own dashboard for the callas License Server. It shows the connection, your wallet and cartridge status and the credits remaining at a glance, so licensing problems are spotted before jobs start failing. It runs on a Mac or Windows PC and works with both on-premises and SaaS callas License Server setups.

// what it shows
Your licensing, at a glance
Connection status
Whether the callas License Server can be reached, so network or firewall changes are noticed straight away.
Wallet and cartridge status
The state of your wallet and cartridges in one place.
Credits remaining
How many credits are left, so you can top up before you run out rather than after jobs fail.
One clear dashboard
A dashboard anyone on shift can read, rather than a status file or command-line output only one person understands.
Mac or Windows
Runs on a Mac or a Windows PC, alongside your existing setup.
On-premises or SaaS
Works whether you run the callas License Server yourselves or use the callas cloud service.

// why it matters
Licensing problems stop production
- 01When pdfToolbox cannot get a licence, jobs stop processing
- 02Errors such as "No callas License server found" or "Not serialized" often turn out to be network changes, not licence problems
- 03Firewall and SSL inspection changes can block TCP port 1400 without anyone noticing
- 04Running out of credits mid-shift is avoidable when someone can see the balance
- 05The person who set up licensing is not always the person on shift
