Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a SOLIDWORKS subscription to use SOLIDWORKS?

While you can install and use your SOLIDWORKS license without a subscription, it is highly recommended for SOLIDWORKS users to maintain an active subscription to access the latest updates and expert Technical Support.

Our subscription packages also come with additional software, such as SOLIDWORKS Visualize and SOLIDWORKS CAM, along with the many other benefits listed on this page.

It's important to note that, without an active subscription, access to those additional benefits and the additional software will be lost.

If your subscription has recently lapsed, or you are looking to renew your subscription, get in touch with us as soon as possible to ensure you retain access and remain supported.

How much does a SOLIDWORKS subscription cost?

SOLIDWORKS subscriptions can vary in cost between packages and businesses. Each purchased license of SOLIDWORKS can be supported by their own individual subscription.
