Upgrade & Retirement Program

Simplified Upgrade Pricing Begins March 16, 2010

Autodesk is introducing a new, streamlined upgrade pricing model on March 16, 2010. Under our current upgrade pricing model, the price of your upgrade depends on which product release you own. After March 15, 2010, your upgrade from any of the three previous software releases will cost 50 percent of the price of a new license, no matter which release you own.

Each new release of our software is designed to help you work smarter and faster. That’s why we always encourage our customers to upgrade. The best way to get current and stay current is to upgrade your Autodesk® 2007, 2008, and 2009 software with Autodesk® Subscription before March 16, 2010.

Save Up to 30 Percent When you Upgrade with Subscription

Autodesk Subscription is the most convenient and cost-effective way to keep your software up-to-date. Plus, when you upgrade with Subscription before July 17, 2009, you'll enjoy up to 30 percent savings on your upgrade.

With Autodesk Subscription, you get many productivity-boosting advantages, including:

• Flexible licensing rights: access previous versions of your software concurrently with new versions for uninterrupted workflow
• Home license use
• Web support
• Self-paced training
• Incremental product enhancements (on selected products)
• Automatic upgrades

Autodesk 2007 Software Retires

If you hold licenses for Autodesk 2007 products that are retiring, you have a limited time to upgrade. As of March 16, 2010, you’ll no longer receive upgrade pricing or technical support for these products. If you want the latest software after that date, you’ll have to pay for a new license at full price.
