Archicad cloud licenses and Graphisoft ID service unavailable

[vlahtinen]

Archicad cloud licenses and Graphisoft ID service seem to be unavailable again.

Anyone else experiencing problems?

[vlahtinen]

Oh, where did you find this?

Hi All, unfortunately there is a global outage at Azure. You can monitor their status here: https://azure.status.microsoft/en-us/status

Bare with us while we work on minimizing the impact.

Graphisoft, please, for the love of God! Stop checking my license every 30 seconds! Every time this happens, and it happens ALOT lately, i get 10 seconds of spinning beachball of death for every 30 seconds of archicad working! Is that really necessary?

Yes, please, a solution for this cases for floating licenses. Nominal assignemnt doesn't work for us, we lose advantages of floating licenses and managing large users is a pain.

so "might …" is doing a lot of work there.

Oh no, how could this have happened? No one could have known that if we outsourced everything to Microsoft and Google, our customers worldwide would no longer be able to work in the event of a malfunction. Hopefully no one will sue us...

Ops, cannot work here in Spain either...

Graphisoft seems to be the least reliable service that we use. Other progrmas that check online licenses give you at least some time (even days) when disconected, Archicad just goes off the moment it looses connection 😓

So cool how Graphisoft forced us to go to cloud based licenses that don't work when there are outages! So cool that literally nobody in the office can work because the servers are down.
