Sketchup pro license vs sub?

Apologies upfront as I’m sure there are a million discussions on this already but I can’t find it.

I’m going to buy Pro but last month it was a one-off price now it’s subscription - the link to the old licenses is a bit confusing. I just wanted to check, that basically - as I’m assuming - subscription is the latest version and the one I should opt for as Sketchup is going the sub route from now on? Also, I can only find it for sale in dollars not GBP, I’m hoping I’m not being a massive dumbass in not being able to find the UK site!

I really hate subscription models as a consumer though I understand why companies do it, and I just wanted to check before I buy the sub pro on the US site that that’s the one I should go for?

Thank you! :slight_smile:

To buy in GBP, use the UK Reseller: http://elmtec-sketchup.co.uk/
