The Rhino 3D V8 Lab Licence is a single licence covering an entire classroom or lab, built for institutions that need Rhino running across a room of shared workstations rather than issuing individual licences to named students. Unlike single-user licences, this one licence covers up to 30 concurrent users in that space, managed through McNeel's Zoo network licensing tools rather than being tied to specific machines. It's the simplest way to equip a teaching lab without the administrative overhead of tracking dozens of separate student accounts.
Key features
- Full NURBS, mesh, and SubD modelling in one toolset

Licence details

- Eligibility: For accredited educational institutions — proof of status required
Frequently asked questions
Can this be installed on individual student laptops?
Lab Licences are room-based rather than assigned to individual machines. With Cloud Zoo Teams, institutions can grant student-owned devices access under McNeel's education licensing rules.
Do we need a network?
A LAN Zoo server needs a local network; Cloud Zoo works over the internet without one.
Do you offer training?
Yes — Rhino Level 1 and Level 2 training is available with any Rhino product or plugin purchase, consisting of a guide manual and email support you can work through in your own time. Contact our team for details.
