Sentinel EMS Portals

The Sentinel EMS web application provides several portals that are used by the several categories of Sentinel EMS users to generate, deliver and consume entitlements. The following portals are available in Sentinel EMS:

>Vendor Portal—Used by the software vendor's personnel (known as user) primarily for managing products and entitlements. The vendor portal is also referred to as the Sentinel EMS portal as it is the primary portal.

>Customer Portal—Used by software vendor's customers (known as customer and contact). These end users can log on to the customer portal and perform entitlement activation and revocation*. They can also view and edit their profile information.
