Transferring Cubit Estimating License

Feature Availability: Cubit version 2022 or later

A Cubit Estimating Floating License can be easily transferred between 1 or more devices in 2 possible ways as shown below.

1. Release License on Exit - With this setting turned ON on all Cubit Estimating devices, the license is released right away when Cubit Estimating window is closed. 

Note: With this way, the license details do not need to be entered every time Cubit Estimating is started.

2. Deactivate License - Deactivate the license before another user activates Cubit Estimating on a different device. 

Note: The license details will need to be entered when registering/activating Cubit Estimating again.

 

Release License On Exit

Cubit Estimating has a Release license when exiting option on the General tab of the Cubit Estimating Settings. When you close the software you will be able to use the same license on a different PC without having to deactivate the license.

You can get to the Cubit Estimating Settings by either clicking the Cubit Estimating button on the Job Manager screen, or the Job button when working in a job.  The Cubit Estimating Options button will then appear.
