Top reasons to use Maintenance Subscription
The smart choice for the best value
Autodesk Maintenance Subscription helps you effectively maintain your perpetual license of Autodesk software. Through immediate access to the
latest Autodesk software releases, you can increase productivity by utilizing the newest technologies and time-saving features. Staying current with
Maintenance Subscription lowers your upgrade costs, helping you maintain a predictable software budget. It’s the best and most economical way to
stay ahead of your competition.
Access to the newest Autodesk technology and design tools
Put the latest software releases and product enhancements right at your fingertips
Maintenance Subscription enables you to stay current with new Autodesk product features built to help
increase your productivity. It’s a cost-effective and convenient way to keep your Autodesk software up to
date and provide you with access to the newest Autodesk technology and design tools for that software.
Maintenance Subscription provides you with access to the latest software releases you are licensed for, as
well as any enhancements to those products that are released periodically.* As soon as Autodesk software
upgrades are available for both stand-alone products and suites, you can access them through the
Subscription Center, a password-protected portal at www.autodesk.com/subscriptionlogin.
Flexible access that fits the way you work
Get the Autodesk software you need, wherever you need it
Remote working is increasingly common, which is why it’s important to have access to both previous and
current versions of your desktop software—and the ability to install it on your home and office computers
and use it in multiple locations.
Having quick access to previous versions of Autodesk software also means you can be prepared to work
with customers who aren’t using the latest Autodesk technology in their projects. Maintenance
Subscription features flexible licensing rights—Previous Version Rights, Home Use Rights, and Extra
Territory Rights—so you can have the right tools at the right time, whatever you location.**
Extend workflows to the cloud
Work more efficiently with Autodesk 360 cloud-based services
A Maintenance Subscription for a stand-alone product or suite gives you privileged access to a variety of
Autodesk 360 cloud‑based services for rendering, optimization, and analysis that can help you save
significant time in your design process by enabling you to work more efficiently.
With Autodesk 360 Rendering, for example, you can create more photorealistic images and panoramas of
your designs without spending countless hours tying up your desktop.
Increase mobility and improve collaboration
Gives you the freedom to work wherever business takes you
The freedom to work wherever business takes you—or where you’re most effective. As a Maintenance
Subscription customer, you are provided 25 GB per named user of Autodesk 360 cloud-based storage
space, so you can complete more computing-intensive tasks in the cloud. And by storing your design
documents in the cloud, you can access files online anytime, anywhere you have an available Internet
connection.
Autodesk 360 enables you to share design files securely with all project stakeholders—even if they don’t
have the design software used to create the files. A complete and more accurate view of project data is
stored in Autodesk 360. You can review and comment on 2D and 3D DWF™, DWG™, Autodesk®
Navisworks®, and Autodesk® Revit® files through a web browser or through a mobile device using the
Autodesk® 360. You also can use the AutoCAD® 360 mobile and cloud application to edit DWG files in the
cloud.
