The Rhino 3D V8 Lab Upgrade lets institutions with an existing Rhino Lab Licence for a previous version, V5, V6, or V7, move their entire classroom deployment up to Rhino 8 at a reduced price rather than purchasing a brand new Lab Licence outright. This keeps your teaching lab current with the latest Rhino release, including the modelling, rendering, and Grasshopper improvements introduced since your last version, while preserving your existing 30-user Zoo-managed licensing setup with minimal disruption to your course schedule.
Key features
- Full NURBS, mesh, and SubD modelling in one toolset
- Grasshopper visual scripting included as standard
- Native support for import/export across almost all major 3D formats
- Cross-platform: works on both Windows and Mac
Licence details
- Type: 30-user educational Lab licence upgrade

Frequently asked questions
Do I need my existing Lab Licence details?
Yes, these are needed so McNeel can verify your eligibility for the upgrade.
Will our old version still be usable?
Your existing Zoo deployment can typically keep the older version accessible if still needed — contact our team to confirm for your specific setup.
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.
