GstarCAD is a highly-functional alternative to AutoCAD that makes an admirable attempt to take on a well-established and prohibitively expensive competitor.

GstarCAD works in much the same way as other computer assisted drawing software - as well as providing many of the same tools and features, it also supports a large variety of file formats. As well as the standard .DWG and .DXF, GstarCAD allows you to use more than 10 other formats in your work.

This application has based itself almost entirely on IntelliCAD. Even though it's not a very original approach, it does mean that anyone who has worked or trained on the original should have no problem using GstarCAD. Pair that with the program's good help and online tutorials, and it really does become a viable alternative.

GstarCAD is a very solid alternative to other, more famous computer assisted drawing programs.

ArchiCAD is a CAD program for construction information modeling, which offers more flexibility and freedom to its users regarding to its competition.

Nevertheless, its main strengths are, at the same time, its weakness: companies tend to prefer more universal programs like AutoCAD. Therefore, ArchiCAD becomes a highly recommended alternative for a very specific sector: the entrepreneurs.

Design Buildings on your own or in company

ArchiCAD lets you construct buildings in 2D and 3D, visualize designs... Its functions are aimed at architects, designers and planners.

If you're only interested in technical design, you rely on 2D CAD tools, which myriad of options and possibilities guarantees a precise and detailed finish. In the other spectrum side, you count with a 3D modeling interface to create buildings with various shapes and features. The Shell function, for three-dimensional jobs, has ArchiCAD's freedom flagship; with shell you can create membranes from the parameter you're interested on.

Would you like to see how your building will look like once constructed? Then you'll be interested in a novelty from ArchiCAD 18, the last version: it's about CineRender 14, its architectonic rendering and visualization software. It requires a high performance, but in exchange offers photo-realistic image and videos from your creations. The result brings a lot of elements to account: shadows, light distribution, the realistic reflexes and a better presentation of the material's surface.

ArchiCAD is also a tool thought for teamwork. For example, its document management function, works as a central storage for many partners to be able to access the same tools or design changes from different access points.

BMI (Building Information Modeling), a kind of 3D modeling software, keeps being the great strength regarding group works. This function allows totally open work flows. The access to projects is fast and intuitive and allows many users to work at the same time in a design without disrupting other's progress. BIM it's a differentiator point from ArchiCAD over AutoCAD.

There are several ArchiCAD versions available. The educational versions serves as a learning tool for architecture schools or other academic institutions. The commercial version is aimed to the professional world.

A lot of options in an intuitive environment.

Each ArchiCAD's new version takes a further step towards the programs goal: guarantee design freedom with the fewer possible technical obstacles. For instance, ArchiCAD 18, the last program's version, optimizes the tools and functions in order to guarantee a creative flow without any interruption. At a practical level, the interface visualization has improved to ease the exploration of its tools without you getting lose on the way.

The visualization engine CineRender 14, another novelty in ArchiCAD 18, it’s even more intuitive than Lightworks, the previous engine. Rendering can be done virtually with one click, and its process it’s similar to the auto correction one in photo cameras. It's a perfect option for beginner users that need professional finish but not yet control all the available parameters.

The program knows how to optimize your PC's configuration. For example, the various processes from ArchiCAD that require time, can be done without any background issues, while you perform other tasks on your PC, as long as your computer is powerful. In this sense, ArchiCAD is only compatible with the 64-bit Windows version.

BIM keeps improving to prevent you from technical contingencies. BIM it’s prepared to apply any change as quickly as possible while prevents that a modification in one sector unpredictably alters the rest of the project. This way, BIM allows you to show various versions of the same project without a having any technical issues.

ArchiCAD, the alternative for entrepreneurs.

ArchiCAD is flexible. Has enough options to allow you to design the building that you have in mind, in 2D or 3D. Its interface, intuitive and easy to use, it is at the service of this amalgam of possibilities.

But here, ArchiCAD's main problem: there are so many ways for using this program that, as a result, it lacks standard procedures that most users harness. And without a unitary use philosophy, companies prefer other CAD programs like the famous AutoCAD: more restrictive but, at the same time, more universal.

As a result, ArchiCAD is suitable for freelance designers and architects (in other words: entrepreneurs) or for small companies that just started and want to give a shot to this program.

Any software that attempts to present an alternative to Adobe's sluggish PDF software is fine by me and novaPDF does an impressive job at rivalling the industry standard package.

novaPDF is a PDF creator that allows you to easily create high-quality searchable PDF files. The first thing you'll notice is that it's very easy to use because once installed, all you have to do is select "Print" from the file menu of virtually any application you're using. The reason being is that novaPDF acts like a virtual printer. You can create just about any type of PDF file including bookmarks, PDF links, public and private documents as well as PDF watermarks and perform PDF compression. Although it's very straightforward with a fully comprehensive tutorial and manual, there's even free support which is unusual in an unregistered piece of software (although registered users are dealt with first). You have pretty much full control over what you add to the documents including the ability to embed fonts and insert images of different resolutions. If your images or text are unusually large - don't worry, you can compress the entire document afterwards no matter what it contains.

At just a fraction of the cost of Adobe's software, novaPDF is a superb answer to your PDF needs and it also enables you to do your bit for the environment by using less paper.

AutoCAD is the industry standard software in CAD design.

The power to design just about anything

AutoCAD is a complete program for designing buildings, objects and just about anything else that requires precision in 2D or 3D. This makes it very complex for beginners, although there is extensive documentation and a series of tutorials to get you started. Also bear in mind that AutoCAD system requirements charge a high cost on your computer.

AutoCAD is suitable for both 2D and 3D drawing and is incredibly versatile, allowing you to customize almost every aspect of the design process. The intuitive interface has been much improved in recent years and now makes it much easier to identify the different functions available. You can create and edit DWG files quickly and, now that AutoCAD is available on Mac, work across platforms too.

The latest version adds various tweaks and improvements including enhanced online maps, better reality computing, animated help tips, a new way of launching and starting drawings, and various other GUI improvements.

Very complex for beginners

AutoCAD is a very complex design tool that requires proper training and instruction to get the most out of. It does come with an extensive help guide but those that are new to CAD will find it very hard to use.

For those familiar with it, one thing to watch out for is to be careful when updating designs and plans because if you make a change in a design, AutoCAD has tendency not to automatically update related files. So, if you change a detail in the section of a building, you must also remember to manually change the plan which is a bit cumbersome.

The biggest barrier for many people however will be the cost. AutoCAD is one of the most expensive pieces of software you will ever purchase, but the complexity and power of it will more than justify the cost for most professionals.

The CAD tool of choice for professionals

If you're looking for the best in CAD software, then look no further than AutoCAD.

What's new in AutoCAD 2016

Enhanced PDFs: PDF documents created from AutoCAD designs are smaller. In addition, it is now easier to find what you're looking for. The connection between AutoCAD and PDFs has been improved by including the documents' hyperlinks to the program.

Smart Dimensioning: When you're designing your documents, you can preview the dimensions of the object before creating it.

Stunning Visual Experience: Your designs will be viewed more clearly and with greater focus on details. AutoCAD graphics will better adjust to your PC.

Coordination Model: AutoCAD 2016 has improved tools to make the work of architects, and designers responsible for projects in the construction sector, much easier.

Sysvar monitor: AutoCAD 2016 prevents unwanted changes to your system settings. It will warn you when one of these changes might affect your design.
