Perpetual License & Maintenance Assurance Program (MAP) Phase Out

Transoft Solutions will have fully migrated to a subscription model starting January 1st 2025. As a result, Perpetual licenses and maintenance (MAP) will no longer be offered. In addition, support included with the Maintenance Assurance Program (MAP) will also end with the expiration of any current agreements.

What should I do if I have a Perpetual license and MAP?

• Your Account Manager can assist you in the process and provide more details around the subscription license model, including 2024 conversion pricing options for your organization.
• We recommend that you act soon to ensure plenty of time for a smooth transition to the new licenses to avoid any disruption to your team’s engineering projects.

How much will it cost to switch to Subscription?

• The cost for the MAP Conversion to Subscription depends on your current license type (Standalone SUL or Network SL). Generally, you can expect the conversion price to be in line with your annual MAP costs, as long as you convert by the end of 2024.
• From 2025 onwards, conversion to subscription will be subject to price indexation, with increased costs expected.

What happens if I don’t convert by the deadline?

• From January 1st 2025 onwards, your Transoft software will no longer be supported. As updates to your CAD platform are released, the software may no longer function or continue to work as intended.
• Your perpetual investment will depreciate over time – you will no longer receive pricing consideration towards conversion after 2024.
• We recommend converting to the subscription model before the end of 2024 to enjoy the best conversion  possible.

What are the benefits of a Subscription license?

• Access your software from anywhere. This makes it ideal for those who work from home (WFH) or are on a hybrid in-office and WFH model.
• Option to set up Single Sign-on (SSO) for enhanced enterprise level security.
• Get access to Transoft Solutions’ ongoing stream of innovation, product updates and additional capabilities as soon as they are available, at no additional cost.
• Cloud-based license user management in the My Transoft portal.
• Flexibility to manage users and costs more easily by scaling products and services to team needs.
