# Using SketchUp MAKE in your business?

Since Trimble took over SketchUp, they specifically reworded the licensing terms to not allow commercial usage with the free versions.

Did you or your company update from free to Pro with 2013? Or stick with SketchUp 8 (or older) from Google?

Our company upgraded to the Pro version for other features, mostly that in the new version importing .dwg was not a basic feature anymore.

I have Make on my work computer, but I use it to view content from 3D Warehouse. I use the models in a program called CET Designer. I am not ready yet to commit to the training cost to really get to the point of buying my own copy right now.
