As a studio grows, the way you licence Rhino 3D needs to grow with it. A single-user licence works well for a freelancer or small team, but larger commercial studios usually need something that scales across a floor of workstations without buying and tracking individual keys one by one. This guide covers the volume and multi-seat options CADWAX offers for larger organisations.

Concurrent User (Network) Licensing

Rhino's Cloud Zoo network licensing lets a pool of seats be shared across your team, rather than tying a licence to one named user or machine. This suits studios where not everyone needs Rhino open at the same time — you licence for concurrent usage, not headcount. CADWAX supplies this as 10-seat and 50-seat concurrent user packages, with the flexibility to scale as your team does. For the full detail on how floating licences work day to day, see our floating licences guide.

Large-Scale Rollouts

For a larger one-off rollout — fitting out a new office or standardising a whole studio on the same version — it's usually more straightforward to arrange a single bespoke order across multiple seats than to process 30 individual purchases separately. Get in touch and we'll put together simplified procurement with one point of contact for the whole order.

Procurement and Account Management

Larger organisations typically need clean paperwork alongside the software — purchase orders, invoicing to a finance team, and a clear record of who holds which seat. Our Rhino 3D accounts setup guide covers how to structure this so IT and procurement teams can manage licences centrally rather than leaving it to individual users.

Choosing the Right Structure

• Small teams, everyone needs it at once — individual single-user licences are usually simplest.
• Larger teams, intermittent use — concurrent user (Cloud Zoo) licensing gets more value from fewer seats.
• Studio-wide rollout of a new version — a bespoke bulk order simplifies procurement and keeps everyone aligned on the same version.
