With Industry Collections each product registers that it has taken a license of its own. The new collections allow 2 products to be run per license however this is managed by the Network License Manager. However, the ability to run 2 products per license is not the case when licenses are borrowed. Currently, when a licenses is borrowed each product in the collection will consume a license individually.
This means that if a user needs AutoCAD, Inventor and Nastran then 3 Collection licenses are consumed rather than one that would be when using the Suites.
Autodesk have told us that they are looking into this; we will update customers when we have more information.
If you have questions or need advice with this then please contact the Symetri's support team.
