If you've already got an ID for MyARCHICAD, BIMx or BIMcomponents, you can use your existing ID as well. First, you need to create a GRAPHISOFT ID.If you have ordered ARCHICAD with a Software Key, you need to do the following: For companies with multiple protection keys, the management of the license inventory is simpler, since the inventory can be managed on a website – this is called the ‘ Company License Pool’.A software key is delivered through the internet, so there are no shipping cost and shipping time.If your computer is lost or destroyed, a Software Key can be easily replaced. A software key is harder to lose, misplace or damage since it resides on your computer. What are the benefits of the Software Key? The owner and the location of a Software Key can be easily monitored in the ‘Company License Pool’ on the website.The ‘owner’ of the Software Key can upload, download and transfer the License Key between computers. Software Keys can be assigned to individual users in the company.The licenses are stored in a ‘container file’ located on the user’s computer. With Software Keys there is no physical hardware to store the license.They both can be transferred from one computer to another.They both can contain ARCHICAD an add-on license and from ARCHICAD 19 on borrowing licenses as well.They both can contain single and network licenses.They both use the same CodeMeter technology.Software Key is fully equivalent to the CodeMeter Hardware Key in terms of software protection functionalities, yet its delivery, deployment and management greatly differ from the hardware protection. What are the similarities and differences between Hardware and Software Keys? This means that any ARCHICAD version that is natively compatible with the CodeMeter keys (ARCHICAD 13 or higher) will also be compatible with the Software Key. Software keys use the same CodeMeter technology as the metal USB keys most ARCHICAD users currently have. Software-Based Protection Keys - or Software Keys for short - have the same functionality as Hardware-based Protection Keys, but instead of storing software licenses on a USB stick, the licenses are stored in a software container file on your computer.
