Access to select Autodesk cloud services. Why tie up your desktop when you can enjoy faster rendering and visualization
Desktop Subscription is a new purchasing option that allows you to license Autodesk desktop software on a term basis to meet a variety of mission and budget considerations, such as taking on finite projects, or hiring temporary staff.
Effective January 31, 2016 Autodesk will no longer sell perpetual licenses of most individual (non-Suite) products such as AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and more. What does this mean for you? • If you wish to purchase one of the products affected by this change you must purchase a new Desktop Subscription license for the products. These are available as multi-year, annual, or quarterly plans.
Benefits included: • Pay–as-you-go access to software: Quarterly and annual subscriptions options allow you to commit to a contract only for as long as you need it.
• If you are already a Maintenance Subscription your perpetual licenses will continue to be renewable.
• Stay up to date: With an active Desktop Subscription, you always have access to the latest software releases and product enhancements. • Scalable licensing: Add and remove licenses more easily. Scale up to manage a variety of temporary project and staffing needs like the addition of temporary contractors.
Autodesk Maintenance Subscription
• New perpetual licenses for Autodesk Suites will continue to be offered beyond January 31, 2016.
Find the Right Subscription Fit Autodesk Subscription gives your agency the latest Autodesk software, technology products, and access to support.
Maintenance Subscription (formerly known as Autodesk Subscription) can be purchased with a traditional perpetual license*. It is the most cost-effective way to maintain and maximize the value of your technology investment.
