How to benefit the most from your unlimited access to IDEA StatiCa 25.0
To leverage your full IDEA StatiCa tools to the maximum, the first step is to upgrade to version 25.0. With active maintenance, a new product appears automatically in your License Manager window.
Here, you will find 999 seats of Complete.
For Steel users
Whatever steel products you have right now, you get access to a range of additional tools during this NO LIMITS (May 12-31) period.
New use-cases
You are now able to run analyze anchoring models also for parts of reinforced concrete, so you can solve anchors close to the concrete edge by taking the reinforcement bars into account.
If you’re connecting steel members to concrete columns or beams, the direct export from the Connection to Detail app lets you easily extend your design workflows.
You also gain the ability to design all standard concrete members, such as haunched beams with openings, concrete walls, walking columns, and prestressed elements
If the Concrete tools are currently grey, you simply need to do is to manually turn the new product on in your license manager:
- Just click the Release button,
- turn the Complete product on,
- and click the Reserve button again
That's it, you are now free to try all of IDEA StatiCa's products.
And one more thing, as you have still another 998 seats available, don't forget to add your colleagues so they can test all the benefits for themselves too.
For Concrete users
For users with a Concrete product license, this unlocks for you key steel workflows, such as detailed analysis of steel connections, stability-sensitive steel members and the ability to import structural data from FEA and BIM tools through Checkbot for efficient bulk design and code-checking.
Just follow the steps previously described.
For customers with both Steel and Concrete
Even if you already have access to all IDEA StatiCa tools, active maintenance still brings a significant advantage - an unlimited number of concurrent users. This means that a license admin can add all the engineers in the office to the same license. They can manage this directly through the User Portal.
If multiple accounts have been created, e.g., as trial licenses, and they should belong under a single company license, you can quickly consolidate them using the shortcut outlined in this User portal documentation.
An important note regarding EULA: If you add extra users during the NO LIMITS period and go over the usual per-seat user limit (see Article 5.2), make sure to scale back to the allowed number as soon as the NO LIMITS period ends to stay in line with the EULA. You can also buy additional seats to increase your per-seat user limit.
Former trial users
During the NO LIMITS period, previously expired trial licenses have been reactivated for users who have tested IDEA StatiCa in the past.
If you've forgotten your login credentials, your username is the email address used for previous communication. You can reset your password at any time, either directly in the application or through the User Portal on the IDEA StatiCa web page.

For users without active maintenance
All of the above applies to users with active maintenance. If your maintenance has expired but you’d like to take advantage of the NO LIMITS offer, simply contact your local IDEA StatiCa representative and ask for maintenance renewal now.
