CLAAS Accelerates Farmer Efficiency with Thales Sentinel Software Licensing
CLAAS, a global leader in agricultural machinery, partnered with Thales to modernize its digital farming platform using Sentinel Software Licensing. The solution replaced legacy systems, integrated seamlessly with SAP, and enabled secure license management for online and offline use. Farmers can now activate, renew, and share licenses across machines instantly, improving convenience and uptime. Sentinel also introduced subscription-based monetization, automated entitlements, and real-time updates via cloud APIs. This streamlined operations, reduced costs, and enhanced customer satisfaction. CLAAS plans to extend Sentinel to SaaS offerings and new pricing models for continued digital growth.
