![]() ![]() Instead of upgrading this license, you may instead purchase a new SketchUp Pro Subscription if you wish to. If you are unsure who your reseller was, let us know and we can assist. Contact the reseller you ordered through originally for a quote. If your maintenance contract expired within the past 3 years, you can still upgrade that license to version 2019, as a perpetual license. I had an older version of SketchUp Pro but my maintenance contract has expired. We recommend keeping your existing version of SketchUp installed until you know that 2019 is running smoothly on your machine. ![]() If you had a 2018 network license, authorising your new 2019 licence on a single machine starts a 60 day countdown, after which your previous license will be disabled on all machines. If you had a 2018 single user license, your current 2018 version will continue to run as an existing installation and you can run 2019 alongside 2018 if you wish to. What happens to my previous license when I upgrade to 2019? The Subscription tab will show as in trial mode, since you have a Classic Perpetual licence and not a subscription license. Once you are in SketchUp Pro 2019 – you can go to Help → Manage License to see your status: You will then be prompted to enter your 2019 license details as follows:Įnter your details (provided by your UK reseller) and ‘Add License’ to authorise SketchUp Pro 2019.

So what does this mean for you? I have a SketchUp Pro 2018 license, what now? There is also a brand new way to access SketchUp a subscription option is now available – as well as the classic perpetual license. We are all adults and realize that our $120 maintenance fee (+ purchase price) is less than you will make with the $299 from those on the subscription model, but browse the forums and help topics to see all the guys that have helped make your company and ideed the community what it is today and I think you will find some ‘very loyal’ folk indeed.SketchUp 2019 landed yesterday! In case you missed the list of features, you can whizz over to here and check them out. Guys - we are feeling that little bit less loved atm. ![]() The second is for an adequate response from our dear partners at SketchUp HQ. Any classic license (maintenance paid up) users out there that think they too, should be counted as among SketchUps most loyal customers and are displeased at finding out their Pro license is now ‘Pro light’, please add comment or weight to this post. ![]() This post essentially asks for two things. We were told in one of the reply’s that the reason ‘Classic’ license holders couldn’t access these features is because there was no way of knowing when their maintenance plan expired despite the fact we all start to receive ‘reminders’ of the impending expiration a couple of months out and are urged to make sure we don’t let it lapse by paying on our due date, courteously supplied so we don’t have to look it up ourselves. This, rightly so, raised the ire of many long term paid-up customers that have supported and promoted SketchUp through thick and thin. Indeed one of the SketchUp team even went as far as to call the ‘Subscription license holders’, those paying more for the ability to access the latest version of the program each year than those of us that purchased SketchUp pro way back when and then entered into and kept up to date the maintenance subscription, as being their most loyal customers. When is a Pro license, not a Pro license? After the much awaited and gratefully received SketchUp 2019, the forums quickly were awash with comment by those of us that were on the ‘Classic’ Pro license noticing that there were features in the latest Pro release, reserved for SketchUps newest paying customers on the Subscription model. ![]()
