Graphisoft subscriptions offer easy, affordable access to always up-to-date BIM technology and cloud collaboration for architects and designers

BUDAPEST, September 30, 2024—Graphisoft, the leading Building Information Modeling (BIM) software solution developer for architecture and multidisciplinary design, today announced that, as it progresses with its strategic shift to a sustainable subscription software delivery model, updated conversion terms will be available to its Software Service Agreement (SSA) / Forward (FWD) customers starting in 2025, with SSA/FWD contracts serviced through the end of 2026.

As announced earlier this year, Archicad perpetual and SSA/FWD licenses will be available for purchase by new customers through December 31, 2024. Existing customers holding Archicad perpetual license(s) can purchase additional Archicad perpetual and SSA/FWD licenses and upgrade earlier versions of Archicad through December 31, 2025. Users can renew SSA/Forward contracts through the end of 2025, and Graphisoft will continue to service active SSA/Forward contracts through the end of 2026.

Starting in 2026, Archicad will be available for purchase only through subscription. Archicad SSA/FWD customers can convert to Archicad Collaborate subscriptions at the same price as SSA/FWD in 2024. Starting in 2025, SSA/FWD customers can convert to Archicad Studio subscriptions at the same price as SSA/FWD. This offer was designed to help SSA/FWD customers take full advantage of Graphisoft’s subscription offerings at a very preferential starting price. Early movers in 2024 are getting the added benefits of cloud collaboration included by default.

“Technology in the AEC industry is evolving at lightning speed,” reiterated Daniel Csillag, Graphisoft CEO. “Shifting our product delivery model fully to subscription allows users to take advantage of agile, responsive, and up-to-date software solutions — as soon as they hit the market,” he added. “We are confident that our conversion program — taking into account our customers’ long-term needs — will attract all our customers to join us on this exciting journey!”

Customers are encouraged to visit the SSA/FWD Conversion to Subscription webpage for more information and/or contact their local Graphisoft representative to participate. Please note that timelines and conditions may differ based on location. The DDScad product line is not subject to these policy changes.
