DSHplus Licensing Options

With three different editions, DSHplus focuses on the different requirements in everyday industrial life, in research and teaching and in the evaluation phase or personal use. The DSHplus model editor and simulator platform, which is common to all editions, is supplemented by further program modules and a differentiated library for each edition. Licensing is another point where the edition is adapted to the application. Annual licenses are available for the Professional and Education Editions. Annual license fees include e-mail support and updates.
