Announcement of our Managing Director:
Dear Valued EAGLE Customer,
With the release of EAGLE v7, CadSoft Computer introduced a new License Management
system for EAGLE in order to better protect our intellectual property and offer more
flexibility and control to customers with multi-user licenses on a network. During the two
weeks since the launch of EAGLE v7, we have been listening carefully to your constructive
feedback and concerns about the new License Management technology and have decided to
remove the license management features from EAGLE v7.
CadSoft Computer has always, and will always, put the customer needs at the focus of
everything we do. We understand that for a large group of our customers the current
License Management is causing limitations or is simply not usable in your current work flow.
Therefore, we have decided to withdraw the new License Management system with
immediate effect. As of the 11th of August, 2014, all new EAGLE licenses will be delivered
without a License Management Tool. All current EAGLE v7.0 licenses will when upgraded to
v7.1 move back to the previous license model.
The V7 License management system and user rights will be identical to those in EAGLE V6.
We will release a new Version V7.1 of EAGLE on Monday the 11th of August, which will be
available for download from our Website.
If you have just installed V7, or have already upgraded to V7 then please contact our
License Management teams (by providing your serial number) at
sales@cadsoft.de or sales@cadsoftusa.com and they will supply you with a new license
once Version 7.1 is available.
If you have not yet upgraded to V7 then you can upgrade to V7.1 in the usual manner via
our Webshop or with the support of our License Management Teams.
We listened, we learned and we support you. Only with your input can we stay on the road
to success that we have been traveling on together for the last few years. Please accept our
apologies for any inconvenience with this.
Best regards,
Thomas Liratsch
Managing Director
