All of these new versions introduce CONNECT Licensing, a major advancement in Bentley's product licensing methodology. CONNECT Licensing gives organizations much more control over license usage and reporting, with the capability to establish concurrent use thresholds, groups of users with different levels of access and more. Selecting the license feature level (number of pipes) is also much more clear to the end user. More information on CONNECT Licensing and how it works can be found here: Licensing OpenFlows | Hydraulics and Hydrology products - CONNECT Licensing.

Important note: with CONNECT Licensing, you will need to sign in to the CONNECTION Client. If you do not currently have an account that is properly linked to your organization, please contact your Site Administrator, who can add you.
