IAR Systems today announced they have entered into a 3 year enterprise software licence agreement with Landis+Gyr, the leading provider of integrated energy management solutions tailored to energy company needs. The agreement establishes IAR Systems as the preferred vendor of software development tools, and provides the ability to switch software licenses between all the different MCU architectures available. As Landis+Gyr product development teams select the most appropriate MCU platform for their design, they can then simply change the required number of IAR Embedded Workbench licenses to support their choice of microcontroller.

Ian McNutt, Head of Research and Development, ICG Metering Products, Landis+Gyr comments, “We have entered into this license agreement since it gives our design teams an extremely flexible, convenient and cost effective way of managing their embedded software development tool assets. Rather than having to commit to licenses for MCU platforms only used occasionally, we can now switch these licenses to suit the needs of the development schedule.”

“We are extremely pleased that Landis+Gyr have decided to standardize their choice of embedded product development tools on IAR Embedded Workbench. Such a commitment highlights the respect developers have for our toolsets, and that we are able to further strengthen our long-lasting business relationships with such an innovative license agreement”, says Thomas Winkler, Director European Sales, IAR Systems GmbH.
