Overall Satisfaction with AutoCAD
AutoCAD is used on all projects that are not utilizing Autodesk Revit, which is the standard across the organization. It also used in some design workflows.
- It keeps the production workflow streamlined compared to BIM tools.
- It simplifies file management with the use of XREFS.
- Versatile with its file compatibility with other programs and platforms.
- Advertises support for Microsoft SharePoint and OneDrive but does not actually function with either due to .dwl and .dwl2 files preventing sync.
- Product does not introduce many new compelling additional features with every yearly iteration.
- Due to designed-in file incompatibility between every few releases, a subscription is essentially required rather than the older perpetual license model.
