When you download the BricsCAD installer for the first time, you will have the ability to start a BricsCAD trial version in the BricsCAD launcher. After 30 days, this trial will end. The launcher will ask you to insert a valid license key. You do not need to reinstall BricsCAD.

You can only buy a BricsCAD license for the most recent BricsCAD version. However, this license can be used on previous versions of BricsCAD no older than V14.

To move a single or a volume license to another computer (license can be transferred between Mac and PC):
1. First, deactivate your license on the old computer.
2. Once the license is deactivated, you can activate it again on another computer.

All your valid licenses can be found on the Bricsys website in My Account > Licenses and Support Contracts (login required).

To install and run BricsCAD on macOS 10.15, you need to explicitly select "Open Anyway". This option is available via System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General, or when using a right-click to open the application.

Yes, a 30-day trial of a BricsCAD Network license is available upon request. To obtain one, please contact Bricsys Sales or your local Bricsys Reseller.
Please note that Network licenses require the setup and management of a local License Server, which should be administered by a qualified Network or System Administrator.
Comprehensive instructions for deploying and managing a Network license can be found in the Bricsys Help Center.
