Benefits of Network Licences

Network Licenses offers several advantages, particularly for organisations and teams who need flexible, shared access to CAD software. Key benefits include:

1. CONCURRENT USER ACCESS: A network license allows multiple users within the same organisation to access BricsCAD Lite from different computers. However, only a set number of users can access it simultaneously (in this case, up to five), which is ideal for teams that don't all need the software at the same time.

2. COST EFFICIENCY: Instead of purchasing individual licenses for each team member, a network license allows organisations to buy only as many seats as typically needed concurrently. This can significantly reduce costs, particularly for large teams or departments with fluctuating usage.

3. CENTRALISED LICENCE MANAGEMENT: Network licenses are managed from a central server, simplifying deployment and license administration. IT teams can easily allocate access based on project needs, enabling a streamlined, organised approach to software management.

4. PERPETUAL & FLEXIBLE MAINTENANCE OPTIONS: With a perpetual network license, organisations make a one-time purchase without needing annual renewals. Adding annual maintenance provides access to software updates and support, ensuring the software remains current and supported, which is useful for staying up-to-date with new features or regulatory standards.

5. .dwg COMPATIBILITY: BricsCAD Lite is compatible with .dwg files, the industry-standard CAD file format. This allows seamless collaboration and file sharing with other software, making it easier for organisations to integrate BricsCAD Lite into existing workflows.

The BricsCAD Lite V25 Network License is especially suited for organisations in architecture, engineering and construction where collaborative CAD work is frequent, and cost-effective, scalable software access is beneficial.
