You’re more than a serial number to us

Autodesk is retiring plans based on serial numbers and assigning each subscription to a named user. These new plans provide benefits now and in the future, at a cost consistent with what you pay today.

  • Dedicated access for all employees whenever and wherever they’re working. No more downtime because all of your licences are in use.

  • Plans for individuals, teams and enterprises with dedicated or flexible software access, depending on how your company works.

  • Easily optimise licensing costs. New named plans will allow you to have visibility into your usage data, allowing you to make smarter investments for your company.

  • With simplified and secure licence management, you no longer have to manage network servers or track anonymous serial numbers.
