Frequently asked questions
GENERAL
The MEP Designer Studio subscription is a licensing option that provides access to the MEP Designer product, enabling users to create and manage mechanical, electrical, and plumbing designs integrated with Archicad. It includes cloud-based licenses tied to your Graphisoft account and supports flexible workflows for MEP modeling and coordination.
- Standard commercial MEP Designer in your local language — Standalone desktop app for macOS and Windows.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT, COMPATIBILITY, UPDATES
MEP Designer Studio subscription users will have access to local technical support lines.
The MEP designer toolkit is no longer included in the Archicad Studio subscription; it requires its own license or an Archicad Collaborate subscription.
Naturally, subscription products provide more frequent updates for license holders because they allow more agile delivery of innovation and bug fixes. This, however, doesn’t mean “forced” updates—the control (and responsibility) of updating remains with you. This also supports users who prefer to keep their differently licensed MEP Designer on the same build to ensure compatibility.
BIMCLOUD OPTIONS
BIMcloud Basic can be used by any MEP Designer and Archicad user who needs basic collaboration and communication between team members. This solution is included with MEP Designer and allows the user to install it on a dedicated in-house server. In contrast, BIMcloud Software as a Service is an excellent solution for any size firm that wants to collaborate via the cloud and eliminate the expense of in-house hardware and IT while enjoying the benefits of high-speed servers and backed-up data. Not to mention additional features like mark-ups in BIMx. Find more details in the comparison list.
You can buy standalone BIMcloud SaaS licenses/subscriptions separately or purchase Archicad Collaborate.
