Multisim Live EOL Letter

Thank you for your continued confidence in NI and Digilent software solutions. We are writing to inform you of an important change regarding Multisim Live, our browser-based circuit design and simulation tool.

After nearly a decade of service, Multisim Live will officially reach End-of-Life (EOL) on September 15, 2026.

This decision reflects our focus on delivering a unified and scalable software platform that better supports evolving customer needs. While Multisim Live has served many users well, we are focusing our investment on the NI Circuit Design Suite (Multisim Desktop) for Windows, which offers deeper integration with NI hardware, broader feature support, and long-term supportability.

What This Means for You

• Multisim Live platform support will end on September 15, 2026. After this date, Digilent does not guarantee the continued access to any Multisim Live data, including your saved designs.
• Multisim Live is no longer recommended for new designs. Use the NI Circuit Design Suite instead.
• Monthly subscription licenses will remain available until August 1, 2026. Yearly subscription licenses are no longer available for purchase.

Product Upgrade Details

For the best performance and long-term support, we encourage you to migrate to the NI Circuit Design Suite, which includes NI Multisim and NI Ultiboard, available in two editions:

• Multisim for Education
• Multisim for Industry

Multisim Live designs can be downloaded and imported into Multisim Desktop. Please note that some metadata (such as comments) may not transfer. A step-by-step guide is available here: Downloading design to desktop Multisim.

As a token of our gratitude, we offer any existing subscribers courtesy access to the NI Circuit Design Suite until October 1, 2026. For details, please refer to NI Circuit Design Suite Offer.

If you enjoy your experience with the desktop version, we'd love to work with you to find the best long-term solution for your needs. Please reach out by submitting a request here and mention your interest in Multisim pricing options under the items you would like included: Get Help Quoting and Buying. Your inquiry will be routed directly to our team.
