The TopoMan CAD subscription unlocks all of this for as long as it is paid, and TopoMan Suite also covers the AutoCAD plugin and TopoMan WCE on a data collector or phone.
And the AutoCAD plugin, the same way
Since its version 3.0, the TopoMan plugin for AutoCAD uses the same licensing system as TopoMan CAD: the same account, the same machine identifier and the same dialog to activate it.
The subscription covers what you paid for (TopoMan CAD, the plugin or both) and each program keeps its own date. If you already have one and add the other with the same email, they add up: you do not lose the one you had.
On the same computer both programs share the link: they count as a single device of your subscription, and releasing it from one releases it for both.
Every subscription plan also includes an Android phone with the complete TopoMan CAD, without using up a device: the CAD and the plugin on the computer, and the mobile version on the phone.
The trial is not a cut-down version
It opens, draws, measures, dimensions and edits with no limits and no expiry date. The only things blocked are save, save as and plot. That is deliberate: whoever evaluates it sees exactly what they are buying, and what they cannot do is deliver a drawing without paying for it.
And the buttons are neither hidden nor greyed out. You press them and they take you to the license dialog, which explains why and shows the machine identifier ready to copy. A button that is not there teaches nobody what the program can do.
The subscription is linked to your devices
Each device is linked from the program, with your email and a code. The identifier comes from the hardware (the motherboard and the system), not from the operating system, so it survives a format and a Windows reinstall. If you change device, you release it and link the new one.
What does it cost?
The monthly subscription prices are published, per number of computers and with the Android phone that comes with them.
