Autodesk Details Subscription Transition for New Software Licenses
Public Company Information:
NASDAQ: ADSK
SAN RAFAEL, Calif. – (BUSINESS WIRE) – Today, Autodesk, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADSK) announced a major shift in its software distribution strategy, effective February 1, 2016. From that date onward, new commercial licenses for most standalone desktop software products will only be available through the Desktop Subscription model. This move marks another step in Autodesk’s ongoing transition to a subscription-based business model, designed to provide customers with greater flexibility, easier access to new tools, and more cost-effective options.
Andrew Anagnost, Senior Vice President of Industry Strategy & Marketing at Autodesk, stated, “The way we design, build, and innovate is evolving rapidly, and so is the way software is delivered. Companies that adapt to these changes will shape the future of their industries—making them more connected, efficient, and innovative. Our customers have consistently asked for more flexibility and value from their software investments, and the shift to subscriptions allows us to deliver exactly that.â€
The Autodesk Desktop Subscription offers a streamlined experience for installation, management, and upgrades, along with flexible payment options and access across multiple devices. The company plans to continuously enhance this offering, integrating it more closely with cloud services and reducing compatibility issues between files.
Customers who purchased perpetual licenses before February 1, 2016, will still be able to use those licenses. Those under Maintenance Subscription will continue to receive benefits as long as their subscription remains active. Additionally, Cloud Services Subscriptions will remain available.
Anagnost added, “We’re giving our customers a full year to prepare for these changes and are committed to being transparent throughout the process. We will work closely with our partners and clients to ensure a smooth transition and minimize any disruption.â€
