progeCAD 2024 2D/3D Professional NLM – Network license

£348.00 inc VAT

Perpetual (once-off) CAD network license.

Perpetual license – progeCAD NLM enables that unlimited progeCAD users in a local network (any local network, even VPN). It works as a floating network license, so when user launches progeCAD, license is automatically assigned to that computer. Number of registered NLM licenses = Number of concurrent users. Free trial period includes fully functional software and 30-day iCARE Premium Support.


NLM consists of progeCAD software that is installed locally on the computer and NLM server. NLM server is small software which doesn’t impact on computer or network performance and it can be installed on any computer in local network, regardless if progeCAD is installed or not at that computer (most often at System Administrator’s computer). NLM Server controls usage of network licenses and enables license administration.

License Take-Away – You need to go on field work in farthest hill on the Earth and there is no internet? Not a problem at all, NLM licenses can be exported with USB memory stick. This way, you can carry license with you and offline work is not an issue. Max flexibility!

Head advantage of network licenses is the cost-efficiency. Simplest way to choose either you need Single License or Network License is to ask yourself a question: “Do I need CAD at disposal all the time, or do I need CAD from time to time, occasionally”? For users who need CAD all the time, Single License is the tool for the job. In other hand if you have multiple CAD users but they need to use CAD just a couple of hours per day, or occasionally depending on projects… Then you can cover many of them with one or a couple (for simultaneous work) of NLM licenses. Single Licenses and Network Licenses can be combined.
