COVID-19: LimitState software for homeworkers

Unrestricted licenses available for LimitState engineering analysis software, valid until 31 May 2020

As a result of the current Coronavirus situation, we have been contacted by LimitState software users from around the world wishing to use our software from home. Unfortunately the remote access networks of many organizations, including academic institutions, are struggling to cope with demand, in many cases preventing access to network license servers or office PCs with licensed LimitState software installed. We are therefore now making available unrestricted licenses for our LimitState:RING, LimitState:GEO and LimitState:SLAB software products, valid until 31st May 2020.

We are also happy for engineers who are not current customers to freely use these licenses to try out full, unrestricted, versions of these software products. However, we kindly ask that when software is used for fee paying work that an appropriate license is purchased (contact sales@limitstate.com).
