The fact is, any software vendor makes Autodesk service look horrible. That is a real alternative to Civil 3D, even if you use AutoCAD. The guys from Australia that write what used to be ARD, (now Civil Site Design) have adapted it to BricsCAD and US design patterns. The next step is to get the AutoCAD users to BricsCAD, and the Civil 3D users to civil software for BricsCAD. They stop giving everyone Civil 3D, and limit it to only those that actually use it. The first stage of minimizing Autodesk products has already begun with several civil companies I know. When you jump to $2,500 for rental, it does start to become something you think about. вЂњThe interesting thing is $1,000 a year for Civil 3D maintenance subscription is pretty easy to justify.

LetвЂ™s wrap with a comment from James Maeding on Steve JohnsonвЂ™s blog вЂ“ Autodesk Perpetual License Owners to get Screwed Big-Time.

Ambitiously adding new features such as the integrated Model Viewer and most recently the Satellite to Surface More are coming this year.

Extremely responsive support group with dedicated Webex support for users.

Feature rich civil design software with an extensive video support system.

Users with legacy versions of Civil 3D can continue to use the features they like while getting increased performance and more stability.

Priced at only $680 for the PRO version required by 3 rd party developers.In many ways better than AutoCAD and 100% DWG compliant.So What are the Alternatives?Д«ricsCAD is CAD engine I examined in detail in my blog вЂ“ Is BricsCAD a Real Alternative to AutoCAD. They often better understand user needs and tailor their software accordingly. Smaller application developers are much more responsive to the needs of surveyors and civil designers. AutodeskвЂ™s software rental program is attractive to large firms because they can write off these costs annually and can license software on demand as they staff up and down based on workload.ДЄutodesk is not listening to the small firms with few licenses вЂ“ the very customers who drove AutodeskвЂ™s growth in its early years when it too was a small technology company.Most importantly вЂ“ One of the basic tenants of business is that companies benefit from doing business with companies of comparableВ size.ДЄutodesk is listening to large civil firms who work on major projects- they drive the bulk of AutodeskвЂ™s AEC revenue.AutodeskвЂ™s planned integration of their rental and perpetual license maintenance programs will drive the annual price to a level that will cause many users to seek alternatives.Even after 12 years, Civil 3D does not address the basics of subdivision design when compared to alternatives.

Civil 3D is corridor based (think highways). Most of the small to mid-size civil engineering firmвЂ™s work is residential and commercial subdivisions.Many continue to use Land Development Desktop even though it has not been even supported since 2012 and are actively seeking alternatives. Surveyors should not have to purchase a full Civil package to process their survey data.It is my belief that many of AutodeskвЂ™s Civil 3D users would be better served by smaller developers who are laser focused on the Civil/Survey market.
