 Autodesk ArchitecturalDesktop vs Revit vs ArchiCAD vs VectorWorks Architect

  Friday June 15, 2001

Is it time for your firm to move up to the very latest version of AutoCAD specialized for Architects - called Autodesk ArchitecturalDesktop ?

-- what are the ramifications, the costs, training, and supplemental software needed ?

-- what about less expensive AutoCAD options, like Bricsnet Architecturals and IntelliCAD ?

-- are there better options yet ? how do these compare with Revit, ArchiCAD, and others ?

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Are your CADD people really being the most productive they can be ?

-- there is software that Automatically Coordinates plans / sections / elevations / details are your people using it ?

-- there is software that generates drawings like elevations, sections, and perspectives Automatically are your people using it ?

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Are you looking for CADD software that will let you control the look of your drawings, not have that "machiny look" and allow you to do knock-their-socks-off professional presentations?

Returning to the Baltimore area for the first time in 5 years to give one of his acclaimed objective overviews of Design Software Options for Architects, Professor Geoffrey Moore Langdon - of Cadence Magazine and Designers 3D CAD Shootout fame - will present a comparitive overview of Autodesk ArchitecturalDesktop vs Revit vs ArchiCAD vs VectorWorks Architect

- Learn the ramifications (pros AND the cons) of upgrading to each of these, that the dealers won't tell you

- Learn the true costs, after you have the other add-ons, libraries, and training

- Learn important issues of compatibility ... what you may think about AutoCAD is a Myth !

- Learn how "smart 3D" architectural CADD interlinks with automatic HVAC, structures, lighting, cost analysis, framing, specs, and schedules

It can be easier - more accurate - more design flexible - more cost effective

- more automatic - and even more fun

* The new paradyme for our profession is coming ...
