Sunsetting ArcMap

Dear Esri Users,

As of 11/22/24 ArcGIS Desktop – ArcMap is no longer available under the UF Site license. We no longer have a license for this software. Concurrent use licenses will also no longer work as part of this change. If you require desktop GIS software then consider migrating to ArcGIS Pro. Here are some resources:

Common Questions

When will ArcGIS Desktop (aka ArcMap) no longer be licensed on campus?

Starting on 11/22/23 ArcMap will no longer be distributed across campus but there will be a limited number of licenses available. If you need ArcMap because of specific functionality (e.g. HAZUS, ArcSWAT, TBEST, or others) we may be able to make it available, but starting on 11/22/24 there will be no ArcMap licenses available.

Can university Staff/Faculty/Students install ArcGIS Pro on their personally owned devices?

Yes, as long as it’s for University-related work.

What do we do if we manage a lab and use Concurrent Use?

You must use named user licenses.

Will there be a change in price for using ArcGIS Pro?

No, providing that Esri continues to charge us the same amount and as long as the number of units chipping in for the site license stays consistent, the charge per unit will not change. It will stay at $500 per year. In 2025 the cost will be going up.

Will students still have access to ArcGIS Pro?

Yes, we have functionally unlimited licenses for ArcGIS Pro, please send students here.

Does this affect the use of ArcGIS Online?

No, we still have functionally unlimited logins.
