Your licence, our machine.
These are licensed to you, and the licence stays yours. Adobe Creative Cloud is already installed; you sign in with your own Adobe account. The others we set up with you once, since the vendor only lets you download from your own account. After that they're on every workstation you launch, signed in with your subscription. We never supply licences for commercial software.

Read this before you start
The workstation resets when your session ends.
Anything left on the desktop is wiped when the session ends. Every customer starts from the same clean machine.
We built it that way on purpose. It means nothing from anyone else's project can reach you, which matters when your work is under NDA. Keep your files on the NAS drive, which persists between sessions and is mapped into every workstation you launch.
Using the same application every day? Tell us and we'll add it to the standard image, so it's waiting for you next time.
Questions
What people ask about the software.
- What software is preinstalled on a Coreframe GPU workstation?
- Every workstation ships with Steam, Blender, Twinmotion, Unreal Engine, D5 Render, FreeCAD, ParaView, Autodesk DWG TrueView, Autodesk Navisworks Freedom, GIMP, Krita, Paint.NET, XnView MP, 7-Zip, Google Chrome & Mozilla Firefox, Adobe Acrobat Reader, VLC, Notepad++, Python, Visual Studio Code, HandBrake & FFmpeg, NVIDIA Studio driver and Visual C++ & .NET runtimes, along with the NVIDIA Studio driver and the Visual C++ and .NET runtimes. They are ready the moment the desktop appears.
- Can I install my own software on a Coreframe workstation?
- We install applications for you. Your session runs as a standard Windows user, which is how we can guarantee the workstation goes back to a clean image before the next customer. D5 Render, Twinmotion, Unreal Engine, Blender and the rest of the standard set are already on the machine. Revit, AutoCAD, 3ds Max, V-Ray, Lumion and Enscape we set up with you once, because those vendors only let you download from your own account. After that they're on every workstation you launch, running on your own licence.
- Does Coreframe provide licences for D5 Render, Lumion or Autodesk software?
- No. Commercial applications are licensed to you, and the licence doesn't come with the machine. You sign in with your own subscription, the same as on your own PC. Only free and open-source software is ready to use without a licence of your own.
- Does software I install stay on the workstation for next time?
- Every session starts from an identical clean image, so nothing from the previous customer, or from your own last session, is left on the machine. Your project files are kept separately on NAS storage, and that does persist between sessions. If you need a particular application every day, tell us and we'll add it to the standard image.
