How do I download TOGAF 8?

Downloading TOGAF 8 as an Architecture Forum Member

If your organization is a member of The Open Group Architecture Forum, you may download and use TOGAF internally under a personal annual Member License.

Please note:

  • If you download TOGAF you are presumed to have read and accepted the TOGAF 8 Member Licensing Conditions. There is no need to complete and submit the license.
  • This is a personal license. It does not permit you to pass on the TOGAF Documentation to your colleagues. If you want other members of your organization to use or evaluate TOGAF, they must take out their own Member License via this web page.
  • The annual Member License is not a Commercial License. As a member, your organization is entitled to a Commercial License for no additional cost; but it is a separate transaction. Your organization must previously have taken out a TOGAF 8 Annual Commercial License in order for you to use TOGAF 8 commercially.

The download procedure:

  1. Check the  TOGAF 8 Member Licensing Conditions; then
  2. Register and download TOGAF 8 under an Annual Member License. (You will need to supply your Open Group ID and password.)
Downloading TOGAF 8 as a Non-Member

You may download TOGAF Version 8 under a free, personal, 90-day Evaluation License; and you may then go on to use it internally under a free, perpetual, Corporate License or a free, perpetual, Academic License, if you wish. Alternatively, you may take out an annual Commercial License.
