Bentley Systems, Incorporated, a leading global provider of comprehensive software solutions for advancing infrastructure, today announced its Autodesk License Upgrade Program. For consideration by owners of Autodesk perpetual licenses facing Autodesk\u2019s imminent deadline for the write-off of the future value of their investment, Bentley Systems is offering recovery of the value otherwise subject to forfeit.
Bentley Systems will credit the net value of Autodesk licenses towards upgraded \u201cevergreen\u201d perpetual licenses of Bentley\u2019s applications. These perpetual licenses never depreciate, as (for instance) Bentley\u2019s SELECT\u2019s annual \u201cportfolio balancing\u201d permits exchanges among Bentley\u2019s comprehensive application portfolio.
Bhupinder Singh, Bentley\u2019s Chief Product Officer, said, \u201cBentley Systems considers purchases of perpetual licenses to be long-term investments by our users, so we continually innovate to increase their value. We are glad to now extend this \u2018future-proofing\u2019 to Autodesk license owners who otherwise will lose value in their applications. And we will continue to offer users the choice to purchase licenses or subscriptions to fit their commercial preferences.
Especially with the new CONNECT Edition generation of our applications, which leverage intrinsic cloud services, I\u2019m convinced that former Autodesk users will considerably prefer the many BIM advancements of our comprehensive modeling environment.\u201d
Roy Kim, Principal of PacRim Engineering, said, \u201cBentley\u2019s new Autodesk License Upgrade Program was a fitting solution for our organization — a small business which is experiencing growth. With Bentley\u2019s CONNECT Edition applications, our users came up to speed quickly and are already realizing impressive productivity gains.\u201d
John Cruikshank, President & CEO, JMC2 Civil Engineering + Surveying, said, \u201cAutodesk continually sets deadlines forcing us to give up our perpetual license for an annual subscription. Their actions have made sticking with the great Bentley products that much easier. With design software being the lifeblood of our civil engineering and surveying operations, it has always been our objective to keep our applications up to date and to maximize our investment. Bentley\u2019s new Autodesk License Upgrade Program is the perfect solution for us. And with Bentley\u2019s CONNECT Edition applications, our staff can get up to speed fast, giving us unheard-of growth in productivity.\u201d
Jenn Goodwin, Business Manager with Bennett Engineering, said, \u201cBentley\u2019s new Autodesk License Upgrade Program was the perfect solution for our company during this growth period. With Bentley\u2019s CONNECT Edition applications, users are up and running quickly and easily.\u201d
