The world of architectural visualization, design, and rendering is evolving, and so is Chaos, the global leader behind industry-favorite tools like V-Ray, Enscape, Corona, Phoenix, and more. As part of their ongoing efforts to simplify the customer experience and deliver greater value, Chaos has announced significant updates to both their product structure and licensing model.
At OAS Technologies, we are committed to helping our customers stay informed and make the right choices for their software needs. Here’s everything you need to know about the new Chaos Suites, upcoming license changes, and how it affects you.
Chaos Suites: Simplicity & Flexibility for Every User
The newly introduced Chaos Suites are designed to make it easier for customers to purchase and manage their Chaos software. Rather than navigating multiple separate licenses, users can now choose bundled options built around the core products:
Core Products:
– V-Ray (industry-leading rendering)
– Enscape (real-time visualization)
– Corona (easy-to-use photorealistic rendering)
Two Flexible Options Available:
1. Chaos Premium: Ideal for users who want access to specific tools with premium support and features.
2. Chaos Collection: Perfect for professionals who want the complete package of Chaos tools for maximum flexibility across workflows.
The best part? The core products can still be purchased individually for those who only need one specific tool.
Major Licensing Changes: Say Goodbye to Fixed Licenses
Effective July 1, 2025, Chaos is retiring its Fixed (device-locked) licenses and transitioning entirely to a Named User License model. Here’s what that means for you:
What is a Named User License?
- A license assigned to a specific user (via Chaos account), not tied to a device.
- Access your tools across multiple devices—wherever you log in.
- Streamlined license management for individuals and teams.
Timeline & Impact:
- V-Ray & Corona Users: All customers will automatically transition to Named User Licenses on July 1, 2025. No price increase for these customers with the transition.
- Enscape Users: Licenses will transition to Named User Licenses at renewal, not immediately. Prices will adjust accordingly, with 6 weeks’ notice provided.
Why These Changes Benefit You:
- Easier access and license management
- Greater flexibility across devices and locations
- Simplified product bundles with Chaos Suites
- Continued access to the latest versions and features
- Centralized support through Chaos’ global system
Pricing Update:
- No price increase for existing V-Ray and Corona subscription holders moving to Named User Licenses.
- Enscape price adjustments will apply at renewal with prior notice.
- Competitive pricing available through OAS Technologies for both individual products and Chaos Suites.
