Sketchup Make is a free version of SketchUp, however, the license is not for commercial use. Employees of our clients will often unknowingly request that we install software that has similar limitations. These requests are not intended to do harm, but they can be costly. We help our clients avoid these risks by performing licensing audits to ensure all their software is valid for their type of organization and that they have not exceeded the number of installs. Here is the actual license for SketchUp Make:
