My understanding is that Bentley are stopping support for MicroStation SS4 at the end of the year. Is that still correct?
Also I have seen somewhere that if we use CE and SS4 at the same time (after support fro SS$ has stopped) this will count as two licence usages. Again, is this correct?
As others have said, starting January 1 any SS4 (and earlier) license will have to be node-locked.
From what I have been told at your next Bentley contract renewal after January 1, you will be charged extra for any node-locked licenses you are still using.

WHAT...?
Haven't we already paid for the software (and the license to run it)? Why are we getting charged again for software already purchased?

Exactly! It’s bad enough to have to have to migrate and worry about licensing issues.

Glenn cc edition is a big change. It’s more then just the time consuming ribbon. I avoid ribbons in any software when possible. It means memorizing shortcuts or navigating through the ribbon or customizing again. The change from the project based format to workspace is a bit confusing. I like having access to all menus in one menu like the old menu bar. Having to switch to the file menu to get to settings is annoying. Microstation used to brag about less mouse clicks compared to Autocad. Now that’s not the case. I get the feeling Microstation is trying to mimic Autocad.
With so many changes I think Bentley should provide more videos that are FREE to long time users.
Hello,
Is the document you and MaryB referring to the "SELECTserver Deprecation" or something else? If it is something different could you please share it?
Thank you and take care,
