Feedback Needed: Exploring Licensing, Usability, and Applications of Beeptoolkit - IDE Soft Controller

Hello, Reddit community! 👋

I’m the author and developer of Beeptoolkit - IDE Soft Controller, a solution designed to make automation and robotics more accessible to developers and enthusiasts. As part of an initiative to expand our reach and improve our product, I’m looking to gather feedback from experts in automation, robotics, and software development.

The demo version with the installation package can be downloaded directly from our store. This offers full functionality without the ability to save created projects.

Here are a few specific aspects I’d love to hear your thoughts on:

1️⃣ Licensing and Distribution:
How do you usually manage and perceive software licensing models? What challenges do you face with activation, user account management, or license tracking?

2️⃣ User Interface:
Our toolkit offers a visual programming approach with minimal setup required. From your experience, what makes a UI intuitive and user-friendly in this field? Any dealbreakers you’ve encountered with other tools?

3️⃣ Security and Reliability:
When developing or deploying systems, how important is software protection (e.g., preventing unauthorized use, ensuring system reliability)? Do you have specific expectations for such tools?

4️⃣ Applications in Automation:
Beeptoolkit supports external USB I/O modules with up to 240 ports, where each port is up to 16 input channels and 16 output channelsmaking it ideal for prototyping and building automated solutions. What kind of tasks or challenges do you think such a platform could help solve?
