It works just fine.. Not sure if anyone who actually consider this worth 399 they use to pay to use the applications..if I really needed this applications for work, the value would be around 9.99

Is this just a way for them to get more user info?

Techno - February 1, 2015 at 11:06pm

What info.. the only info they get is what you put in? Mine works just fine.

rich cower - February 1, 2015 at 2:46am

I can't get the key. Not sure what to do at this point.

tzvifiller - February 1, 2015 at 1:41am

nuna - February 1, 2015 at 12:36am

ivan chee - February 1, 2015 at 12:50am

sonivEX - February 1, 2015 at 12:20am

Thanks for letting us know about this. Great piece of software!

Dommm - February 1, 2015 at 12:06am

I think you have to download a separate program I went on the site and it seemed to suggest that there's a different program to download

erase1001 - February 1, 2015 at 12:53am

Download you can but not for the license key. I think they are having some problem with the license system.

zetaprime - February 1, 2015 at 1:21am

The download page was flaky for me the first time. It downloaded regular Google earth. But I tried the link again and this time got the pro version. I was able to get both the Windows and Mac versions on their respective computers.

erase1001 - February 1, 2015 at 1:24am

Were you able to get the license key as well?

gamerscul9870 - January 31, 2015 at 10:56pm

$400 per year? No way. I'd rather have 3d buildings and terrain instead.
