Licensing Options

Single-user licensing

A single-user license is assigned to a particular user. That individual can install the license on any computer he/she is using. Only one of these computers can be running SketchUp at a time, and it authorizes that individual's use only.

Network licensing

A network license is not assigned to an individual user. The software can be installed on as many computers as needed which are connected to a centralized server location. The license is stored in a shared folder and the software points to that license. The number of seats purchased determines the number of concurrent users. Example, a 50 seat network license (50 x cost per single license) can be used by any 50 people at one time. If the 51st person on the network attempts to run SketchUp Pro they will receive a message that no license is available.

Please note - Google does not support SketchUp Pro licensing over a Wide Area Network (WAN).

Note: The software will NOT run when off the network and the licenses cannot be checked out. If a mobile license is needed, it is recommended that a single-user license be purchased.

If you already have a network license, you can extend them to more seats (no minimum of 50 seats).
