Solutions by discipline
Start from the work, not the product list.
The right edition depends on what you have to hand over at the end: a permit set, a machined part, a cut list or a client presentation. Pick the work and we will name the product.
By discipline
Six kinds of work
Architecture & building
Floor plans, elevations, sections and permit-ready construction documents, with DWG in and out for the rest of the team.
Mechanical & product design
Constraint-driven parts, assemblies, sheet metal and drawings a shop can build from.
Woodworking & fabrication
Cabinetry, joinery, cut lists and CAM toolpaths out of the same 3D model.
Home & landscape design
Remodels, decks, kitchens and planting, presented as a photoreal render from the plan.
Civil & site work
Grading, contours, road geometry and earthwork volumes on top of a survey.
Education & training
A syllabus-ready CAD seat with the course text included, at academic pricing.
Manufacturing engineering
Tolerance-driven detail drawings, GD&T and 3D PDF handover to people without CAD.
Facilities & space planning
Accurate as-built plans, furniture layouts and occupancy studies from existing drawings.

When it is more than one desk
Licensing for teams
Volume, term and floating licences.
Buy the seats outright, run them annually, or hold floating licences that let one person work on two machines. Volume pricing starts at five seats.
| MODEL | BEST WHEN |
|---|---|
| Volume perpetual | Seats are permanent |
| Enterprise term | The project has an end date |
| Floating | One person, two machines |
| Academic | It is a classroom |
Describe the job, not the software.
Tell us what you have to produce and who has to open it afterwards. That is usually enough for us to name the edition.
