DST products are used worldwide in the classroom, the research lab and the engineering office to bring the power of physics-based simulation to people who have never had the opportunity to experience the benefits of this technology. Our products are designed to be affordable and accessible so that those who need the answers our products can provide are able to afford them and use them without becoming specialists in simulation technology.

Our core expertise is in simulating assemblies of moving mechanical parts to predict their dynamic motion and the displacements, velocities, accelerations and reaction forces that result. We package and augment this core technology for specific types of uses broadly separated into engineering and classroom applications.

License Types

When you purchase a DST product, you need to choose the type of license and the duration of the license.

Licenses are configured as either Node locked, Dongle locked, or Network/Floating. These configurations are described in detail on the Support Licensing page.

License Duration

The duration of a license is one of the following:

Short Term This type of license typically runs for a period of one (1), three (3), or six (6) months. When the duration has passed, the license stops working. It may be renewed for another period by paying the license fee. Users of short-term licenses are entitled to any product updates that are released during the duration of the license. Commercial short term licenses also include a support contract for the license duration.

AnnualThis type of license runs for a period one (1) year. When the year has passed, the license stops working. It may be renewed for another year by paying the license fee. Users of annual licenses are entitled to any product updates that are released during the year. Commercial annual licenses also include a support contract for the year.

Perpetual This type of license never expires and allows the use of a specific version in perpetuity, subject to the terms and conditions of the DST license agreement. This license does not include any updates or support services. Non-commercial users will have the opportunity to purchase new versions and special upgrade pricing. Commercial users can optionally purchase a maintenance and support contract that provides access to all upgrades and to customer support for the duration of the contract.
