SketchUp Subscriptions offer a set of services based on the needs and budgets of our customers. SketchUp uses a named-user model. This means each subscription corresponds to a specific user; a real person using their real first name, last name, and a real email address.
If you pay for a SketchUp Pro subscription, your subscription is active for the term listed on your invoice. In most cases subscriptions are for one year.
For more specific information about administering a subscription or for handling members and seats, be sure to visit our Help Center article about the Trimble Account Management Portal.
