v19 brings enhanced performance for all solvers. The Level 2 Basic through Pro Desktop solvers all have at least a doubling in the number of threads that can be utilized! Even better, High Performance Solver licenses are upgraded with Beowulf capability, free of charge.

Another feature of v19 is the switch to Reprise License Manager, with an easy to use web interface and from our testing, quicker setup and support.

*v18 and v19 use different license managers and therefore require different license files; on-maintenance customers can receive both throughout 2025.

Sonnet v19 features an improved material library with direct manufacturer support for material parameters, including anisotropy.

We're very excited to announce that Sonnet v19 has been released! 🎉There are many exciting features that we'll explain in detail in future posts. For now, customers can check their email for how to receive their v19 upgrade, or email [email protected] if you didn't receive an email.

Here are a few more archived items we found from versions 10 and earlier! While v19 is fast approaching, it's been great to see how we got here😀

We're curious (see what we did there?) to hear about a project or accomplishment of yours that stemmed from curiosity. Let us know in the comments!

Today we took a trip down memory lane and installed version 4 of Sonnet, contained on 4 floppy disks! One installation requirement that stood out while looking through the manuals was a colored monitor for some of the features. We'll be sharing more things #foundinthearchives later this month😀

Sneak peek at something cool we're sharing next week 👀#foundinthearchives

Some Monday inspiration. We hope you have a great week!
