Bricsys have recently announced changes to upgrade options for BricsCAD perpetual license holders from the start of next year.

What’s Changing?

Until December 31, 2025:

• Customers can continue upgrading any BricsCAD license from version V14 up to V25.
• Licenses from V1 to V13 remain non-upgradable, as previously announced in 2020.

Starting January 1, 2026:

• Customers will only be able to upgrade from the three previous versions of BricsCAD. For example, when V26 is released, only licenses on V25, V24, and V23 will be eligible for upgrade.
• Licenses on V22 and older will no longer be upgradable; however, customers can continue using them under the terms of their perpetual license.
• This policy change does not apply to BricsCAD Subscription customers, who always have access to the latest version.

Support Policy Alignment

To align with the new upgrade rules, the Bricsys Support Policy will also change on January 1, 2026: 

• Bricsys will support the last four (instead of three) versions of BricsCAD: V26, V25, V24, and V23.

• This ensures Maintenance customers receive full support for all versions that remain eligible for upgrade, enhancing the value of the Maintenance plan. 

What should I do if I have an old license of BricsCAD?

If you have an older perpetual license of BricsCAD, then we recommend that you take advantage of the Bricsys upgrade promotion to upgrade your license to the current release. This promotion runs till the end of this year and offers savings of up to 60% on your upgrade. For more details on you upgrade options, please get in touch with us.
