Question about switching from the Educational license to the Standard plan.
I currently use the educational license as I volunteer for a high school robotics team. I am looking into using CAD for more commercial uses, so I believe I would need to switch to the standard plan as the pro plan is out of my budget at the moment. The issue is that the standard plan is missing some of the features that I need for my education. If I'm an admin of a classroom that is on the education license, but my personal account is on the standard plan, would I still be able to use the features of the education licence while working within that classroom?
Answers
It might be easiest and cleanest to just have two accounts. Keep your current Educator Plan for use with the robotics team and create a Standard Plan account for commercial use. I use plus addressing for this purpose (myemail@gmail.com, myemail+educator@gmail.com, etc.).
