We received our renewal notice, and I found a page that said:
Each license of any individual application listed above will be migrated to OpenRoads Designer CONNECT Edition and will be replaced by an OpenRoads Designer SELECT Subscription on your SELECT Renewal.
We are still using SS10 civil design software (both PowerGeopak and PowerInRoads) for the bulk of our projects, primarily because our main clients are still using SS10. Are the SS10 softwares covered by the "OpenRoads Designer SELECT Subscription" or are they not? It is not clear whatsoever from the notice we received, and we need to know.
I understand that Bentley wants us all to move to the newer products, but many of us are still constrained by client deliverables. Until our clients move, we can't.Will our legacy products be licensed under this new agreement?If not, how do we negotiate that?
Thank you.
Check out this FAQ that shows which products are covered under the OpenRoads Designer License: https://communities.bentley.com/products/road___site_design/w/road_and_site_design__wiki/33567/licensing-faq-for-openroads-designer-connect-edition
Yes, you can continue to use Power InRoads and Power GEOPAK. Their usage will be covered under the OpenRoads Designer subscription.

All of our PowerGeopak installs are now crashing. It started a few hours ago. We have not updated anything in our offices and we have zero access to the software. Microstation will open, but PowerGeopak crashes and it gives a .net error as well. We opened a ticket but have not heard back. We are dead in the water at this point. Anyone have the same issues?
jkflores - I see you posted separately about this. I have moved the post to the Civil forum where a specialist can assist. Please use that new thread to continue discussions regarding your Power GEOPAK crash.
