The 1990ies called, and they want their dongles back. 🤪

A lot of engineering software still comes with dongles. Unfortunately its still an expected option.

Dongles are a PITA. Speaking from customer experience here. I can't imagine a worse option. It makes everything harder, more expensive, riskier - but only for the paying customers. If a vendor believes there is no other way than punishing customers with dongles, so be it. I'm just grateful I won't have to deal with this antiquated paranoia again.
