If you are using the newer cloud-enabled versions (OrCAD X), the login is integrated directly into the application interface.

If you are using OrCAD inside a large company or university, you typically do not need to "log in" to the software itself. You simply launch the application. If the application asks for a login, it is usually trying to reach a license server managed by your IT department.

Modern versions of OrCAD (Capture, PSpice, PCB Designer) utilize the system. If you have purchased a license or are managing a network license, you will need to log in to the Cadence Support portal.
