Allow Multiple Subscriptions per User

Allow Multiple Subscriptions per User

As a CAD Manager, it’s often necessary for me to work on two machines simultaneously. When employees leave the company, I need to access their systems to check in files, a process that can take significant time to complete. Meanwhile, I’m unable to continue working on my own tasks, as Autodesk now limits active sessions to just one per user.

I propose allowing users to be assigned multiple licenses for the same product. Since we are paying for these licenses, we should have the flexibility to utilize each one as needed. Currently, there is no option for this in the Manage portal, which restricts our productivity. Allowing access to all paid licenses would make a substantial difference in efficiency.

Sounds like you just need to talk to your bosses about not being billable when you are in the IT/CAD Manager phase of your day, or just outsource these non-billable tasks to your IT. You can't do both jobs at the same time, unless they are paying you two salaries to do two jobs (which i seriously doubt).

 

You're being abused as an employee (or being short-sighted if you are the owner).

Hi pendean,
Checking in a large system can take a lot of user-idle processing time.  Time that I could be spending on other projects while I wait for it to come back on that other machine.
Girls like to multi-task.  I understand your perspective though.  🙂
