Can someone point to a link that shows me the difference between the EBA version of ACC vs a non-EBA standard version?

Hi @rramosG45Q9 ,

Autodesk offers two primary licensing options for Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC): the Enterprise Business Agreement (EBA) and the Standard (non-EBA) version. Here's a comparison to help you understand their differences:

Enterprise Business Agreement (EBA):

• Comprehensive Access: EBA provides access to a wide range of Autodesk products and services, including ACC, tailored to meet the specific needs of large organizations.

• Flexible Licensing: It offers flexible licensing terms, allowing for scalable usage across multiple projects and teams.

• Enhanced Support and Services: EBA customers receive priority support, dedicated account management, and additional services such as training and consulting to maximize the value of Autodesk solutions.

• Customization and Integration: The agreement often includes options for customized solutions and integrations to align with the organization's workflows and systems.

Standard (Non-EBA) Version:

• Product-Specific Access: The standard version provides access to specific ACC products based on individual subscriptions, suitable for smaller teams or projects.

• Fixed Licensing: Licensing is typically fixed per user or per project, with less flexibility compared to EBA.

• Standard Support: Users receive standard support services, with options to purchase additional support if needed.

• Limited Customization: Customization and integration options are more limited, focusing on out-of-the-box functionality.

For more detailed information on EBA and its benefits, you can refer to Autodesk's official resources:

• What is EBA? | Autodesk

• Autodesk Construction Cloud Pricing

These resources provide insights into the offerings and advantages of each licensing option, helping you determine which aligns best with your organization's needs.

Do you have more detailed information. For example, I found out that auto-provisioning of users into the ACC platform via SCIM comes with the EBA and free access to the APIs for automation.  Is there an exhaustive list of all the technical differences?

Hi @rramosG45Q9 ,

You're absolutely correct that Enterprise Business Agreements (EBAs) are unique, customized contracts formed through direct coordination with Autodesk. Unlike the standard licensing options, EBAs are designed to address the specific needs of each organization. This means that no two EBAs will look the same, as each is crafted based on your business goals, workflows, and integration requirements.

Since there isn't a set feature list for EBAs, Autodesk works closely with your team to define the features, support, and flexibility that will provide the most value. For example, the EBA can include elements like SCIM auto-provisioning, free access to APIs, advanced integrations, and custom support services, but these are tailored specifically during discussions with Autodesk.

To explore or establish an EBA, it's best to speak directly with your Autodesk representative or account manager. They can provide more guidance on the process and help you develop an agreement that fully aligns with your organization’s goals and operational requirements.

Let me know if you have further questions or need help connecting with Autodesk for this process.
