Benefits of the dongle:
- no internet connection required (the activation key sometimes wants to call home)
- access to both Studio Resolve and Studio Fusion
- you can use Resolve/Fusion on multiple computers (but not simultaneously)
Benefits of the activation key:
- you can install Resolve/Fusion on up to 2 computers and use them simultaneously
- nothing physical to fail/lose (but store your activation key somewhere safe)
I use the dongle and it works fine for me because I only use one (dedicated) machine for video editing/compositing. If you have multiple computers (such as a desktop in your edit-studio and a laptop for working on the road) then the activiation key would be a better option because you don't run the risk of losing, damaging or forgetting the dongle.
