What is CAD software?

CAD stands for Computer-Aided Design and is a type of software that allows you to create technical drawings in 2D and 3D with precision. CAD allows you to modify drawings quickly, automatically generate sections and elevations, collaborate in real time and share files with other professionals.

What is the difference between AutoCAD and Revit?

AutoCAD is a classic drawing tool: it draws lines, curves and geometric shapes in 2D and 3D. Revit is BIM (Building Information Modeling): when you draw a wall, the software knows it's a wall with material, thickness and strength. Revit automatically generates sections, elevations, material lists and technical specifications.

Is ArchiCAD better than Revit?

Both are quality BIM solutions. Revit is the global standard while ArchiCAD is preferred in Northern Europe (Scandinavia, Netherlands, Austria) and was designed specifically for architects.

Can I use CAD software on Mac?

It depends on the software. AutoCAD natively supports macOS, Revit is Windows only. ArchiCAD supports macOS while Civil 3D is Windows only. Revit has alternative cloud versions (Autodesk Platform Services), but these are not complete substitutes for Revit desktop. If your team uses Mac, verify compatibility before purchasing.

Why invest in professional CAD software?

Professional CAD software (Revit, AutoCAD, ArchiCAD, Solidworks) is a tool that pays for itself quickly. An architect using Revit generates complete technical documents (floor plans, sections, elevations, material lists) in a fraction of the time compared to basic CAD. Real-time collaboration with your team shortens feedback cycles. If you work professionally, free software is not a viable option — it costs you more time than you save in money.

When is professional CAD software not worth choosing?

If you don't need to create 3D modeling or execute workflows with advanced automation, then you can choose to opt for non-advanced CAD software. Consult your client to understand their needs before choosing your CAD modeling product.

Can I use the same CAD license on multiple PCs simultaneously?

It depends on the type of subscription. Autodesk and ArchiCAD can be used on two devices but not simultaneously per user. Solidworks is for a single Windows PC and, to be activated on another device, must be deactivated on the previous one. Check the activation details on the specific product pages before making a purchase.

Can I use a CAD license in the office and while working from home?

Yes. Subscriptions (Revit, AutoCAD, ArchiCAD, Solidworks) allow access from anywhere via your account. Log in from home, from the office, from a client and so on. The software automatically synchronizes your files in the cloud since the license is tied to your account, not the PC.
