Is AutoCAD Architecture Worth It?

5,0 3 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: This software always brings out the creative in you. It is always coming to the rescue when I least expect it so I plan on using it furthermore in the future.

Pluspunten:

This software comes with tools that allow me to model my buildings in 3D and comes with loads of options on how to create a set of architectural drawings. I can manipulate physical properties with certain parameters and drive the geometry accordingly by changing the value in the properties palette. I can even create door and window schedules based on components that are in the model I'm working on.

Minpunten:

I really wish that AutoCAD (VANILLA) and AutoCAD Architecture were integrated as one sometimes, it would make my life so much easier.

AutoCAD Architecture: The Leader in Architectural Software

5,0 4 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: My overall experience with AutoCAD Architecture has been a positive one. Once I completed my first concept drawing, I was pleased to see our architect come up with much the same thing, using the same software. A vote of confidence from the industry solidified my impression of the software.

Pluspunten:

AutoCAD Architecture provides an easy to use, yet powerful interface for designing homes and other structures. When the time came to do a renovation on our home, I tried several alternatives before settling on AutoCAD Architecture as the most viable option. All of the other software suites lacked the functionality I sought in terms of views, materials control, snapping, dimensioning, and more. I had initially thought I would simply be using plain AutoCAD, but AutoCAD Architecture has enough architectural-specific features that made home design so much easier (standard thicknesses for walls; blocks for windows, appliances, etc.).

Minpunten:

AutoCAD can be a bit overwhelming for the uninitiated/untrained. I had lots of experience with standard AutoCAD as an engineer, but was worried AutoCAD Architecture might be too complex. That concern turned out to be unfounded as there are many helpful teaching videos available online. After a half hour of how-to's, I was up and running without incident.

Outdate product that could use some big updates

3,0 3 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

AutoCad is straightforward and simple. It gets the job done but just not always in the most efficent manner.

Minpunten:

The product freezes too much, or worse, shuts down if you ask too much of it - resulting in lost work, constantly (good look finding your backup file saved somewhere.) Some tasks are backward, or shortcuts to make your work production easier are hidden in the depths of the menu bars, impossible to figure out. The fact that you cannot change shortcut keys for certain tools is obscene, you need to essentially write code in order to do this. The software is not made for the user, and it seems like they do bare minimal updates to move it along.

AutoCAD Architecture Review

5,0 5 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I am a self taught CAD operator who designs small houses and AutoCAD helped me a lot and is still helping me to this day even though I am still learning more, it is a good software that really helped me.

Pluspunten:

AutoCad is a very good CAD software because it is user friendly and it delivers quality graphics that encourage creativity, and it has a lot of features that can be added on and manipulated, which makes it a perfect Draughting tool for Architects old and new.

Minpunten:

It took me too long to get a hang of everything, but truth be told, whatever I learned stayed with me because it was easy to apply, I feel it has a lot of features that need to be learnt first before everything is clearer.

AutoCAD-An amazing asset for drawing and demonstrating

4,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: AutoCAD Architecture takes the previous AutoCAD to an entirely different measurement. The program essentially helps profitability, which enables a customer to work all the more productively and adequately. Truth be told, I think this item is something fundamental in each office and home that as often as possible arrangements with structural plans. I additionally feel that organizations that embrace this specific program will no doubt appreciate the additional advantage of automation of complex drafting endeavors than previously.

Pluspunten:

Autocad makes the calling of originators, planner and architects all the more simple, sorted out and intriguing, the autocad interface give each attracting apparatuses genuine in a computerized structure, with the assistance of the instruments like frameworks, object snaps , polar trackers and the symmetrical mode which carries on like a genuine set-squares and Tee-squares, an expert can sit agreeable on is sofa at home and make drawing audits, with this broad devices. autocad interface can without much of a stretch be altered to fit the sort of drafting you would need to do either 3D or 2d, a few times the various toolbars and directions can be overpowering for fledglings, however they are helpful given the client knows how and what to utilize them for. Autocad is client friendly,easy to utilize particularly the 2D drafting the numerous instruments have different capacities, that would be required for various kind of drawings, before you use autocad, you should comprehend the nature of work you need to accomplish, at that point autocad will offer them to you quicker, precisely and progressively satisfactory. Autocad gives the benefit to secret key drawing records, to avert access to your drawings by different clients of your PC,you can go to choices by right snap on the drawing window,from there you can set secret phrase to your presently opened documents, its has truly help keep up some degree of duplicate right, and help to verify organizations idea and structures .

Minpunten:

The sticker price related with AutoCAD is steep, thinking about fashioners, designers, and specialists, all utilization it unendingly. To work without significant glitches, for example, screen solidify, slow preparing velocity the product needs framework wealthy in memory and RAM. A couple of directions like Trim and Hatch work gradually if your PC is (for my situation) old or short on accessible RAM. For new clients, the whole interface can be very overpowering thinking about the quantity of directions accessible for differed capacities. I don't generally have serious issues with the 2D drafting highlight, as it is exhaustive, exact and easy to use, however by one way or another the 3D highlight isn't the best. As I would like to think, there is other programming accessible which can create excellent, introduction commendable and practical 3D renderings as most have their very own beam following, something that AutoCAD needs. Also, for complex undertakings, it very well may challenge update areas, heights, and detail drawings regardless of whether there is a minor change in the arrangement/s. For this reason particularly, I lean toward BIM programming when taking a shot at enormous and testing ventures.

The Only 2D Architectural Program I Will Ever Use

5,0 4 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: My overall experience has been amazing. It has been easy to use, easy to share, and easy to prepare.

Pluspunten:

What I like most about this product is its ease of use and all of its features specific for what I am specifically doing. Exporting and sharing projects is seamless and the options for what I can do with this product are almost endless.

Minpunten:

What I like least about this software is the tediousness of selecting small lines. It can be hard on my eyes when using it for many hours on end.

Designing without Autocad is Impossible!

5,0 5 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Autocad is ideal for both big and small projects weither in a team or solo. It has all the tools necessary to design both in 2D and create a 3D Model making it crucial in handling projects from start to finish.

Pluspunten:

Autocad is the most convenient, easy to use, one stop software for drafting, designing and detailing your Architectural drawings. It is workflow efficient that alows you to easily edit, replicate and import works from previous designs and customize your projects to fit any requirements. Best of all, it allows you to publish with ease to what ever scale you require. And Its not CPU or Ram intensive so you can use it without buying an expensive high performance PC. Overall, its a designer's best toolkit.

Minpunten:

Over the years, they tried to merge the 2D and 3D functionality together resulting in Bulky software that causes a huge lag on systems. It also had compatibility issues with old designs you had from previous software releases. And lastly, there were bugs when it came to importing fonts and measurement scales that were implemented by other designers when working in group works, but now it is great to see these problems resolved.

AutoCAD Architecture is the best software for 2 & 3D architecture

5,0 3 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Using AutoCAD Architecture, I created architectural and construction drawings, which I then presented to clients and persuaded them of their value. It was the best thing that had occurred to me in my professional and practical life. As a student in the Faculty of Engineering, I learned AutoCAD in my first year and was able to separate myself from my peers through my AutoCAD drawings and projects. I have to deal with him daily because he is the centre of my professional and personal life.

Pluspunten:

I most like AutoCAD 2d classic version. I am a draughtsman in the profession. Auto CAD architecture helps me create quality & accurate 2D drawings Easily & Efficiently

Minpunten:

Nothing in the least Everything ok . the best tool for creating Architectural 2D drawings & 3D models

Greatest tool for an engineering company.

5,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Autocad has helped us create precise drawings really easily, it's libraries are so complete that most of the drawings are almost pre drawn. If you can afford it's really high price then it's totally worth it.

Pluspunten:

Autocad is extremely powerful, it is a drawing tool that can work for any type of situation, we have created electrical, mechanical, civil and architectural plans with it, also room designs and layouts. It has so many features that make the use of other cad tools unnecessary if you can afford it.

Minpunten:

It can be overwhelming, since there are so many comands you need to know just to perform the most simple actions such as drawing a circle or a line, it could be more streamlined. Also it is really expensive.

Its a great tool for doing site and initial schematic design, but cumbersome for complex projects

4,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: It helps me do the things I need to do for my job. Its a good design tool and allows me to view work done by other professions.

Pluspunten:

Its the original computer aided drafting software and has been used by everyone in the construction industry. Its solid and works great. With a little bit of training its pretty simple to use and doesn't require extensive knowledge of 3d software. It does have the feature and is a good start into the 3D world. I love its compatibility with all other autodesk products and can't be linked into Revit easily. Its cheaper than Revit though and is bundled with that as well. Most fabricators and shops still use it so its a must to have if you are in the construction industry.

Minpunten:

Its definitely a bit old school and not really the software you should base your practice around. Its BIM capabilities are very lacking. It does have some 3D capabilities, but the interface is cumbersome and not easy to use for first time users.

new to autoCad?

5,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I am really pleased on this app, make my work as a interior designer so easy and help me resolve the problems of showing my clients my ideas on the design, quickly.

Pluspunten:

I would say, the most remarkable thing for professionals looking for floor plan presentations and architectural details for construction mostly, once you get the basics on the menu and keyboard shortcuts, its the friendly and easy workflow you can achieve from having a rough sketch and measures.

Minpunten:

one thing I dislike is the difficult task of plotting on a given scale, its a real pain for most of us non architects.

From general to detail works, this is compatible

4,0 6 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

What I like the most for this software is it has features that can cater drawings that require detailed attention and accuracy. Rest assured, AutoCad Architecture also has the smart object to make the 3D viewing easier. In terms of use, this is very easy to learn and it has more function compared to AutoCad alone.

Minpunten:

The software is undeniably a perfect match for drafting, although not the best choice if your main purpose is to render the objects.

A must-have for any architecture firm

5,0 6 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

My architecture firm uses this software every day for our drawings and presentations. We’ve tried other drafting software but none matched AutoCAD in functionality, user-friendliness, or customer support. It’s excellent when used in combination with other BIM software.

Minpunten:

The main drawback is that, unlike many BIM programs in which the drawings are linked, each AutoCAD drawing must be edited individually.

Best Option Available

5,0 5 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Best out there for a small firm on small scale projects. Smart walls are a big time saver.

Pluspunten:

Smart objects are a big value add in this software - eliminates a lot of linework. Still familiar CAD experience without having to migrate to Revit

Minpunten:

No version written for MAC, when many users would prefer operating on the MAC OS instead of windows machines [and no, virtual machines don't run well]

I have used AutoCad for 30 years. IT is a wonderful tool to complete the drafting tasks.

5,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: It make my job so much easier.

Pluspunten:

AutoCad is a wonderful CAD package. It will do the needs of the user. It is not made to do FEA or 3D tasks with ease, that is why there is Inventor.

Minpunten:

It is a CAD package that lives to its name, Computer Aided Drafting. It is a tool for drafting. Most people want more than a drafting tool.
