Then there is a concern what Hexagon ppm does to the Bricsys team. Hexagon ppm is therefore no longer dependent on Autodesk and it also works faster and more stable. For example, the CADWorx Plant Design Suite was made suitable for BricsCAD last year. In fact, people are already working on that. From this point of departure, it is conceivable that BricsCAD as a CAD platform forms a valuable basis for building many solutions. Hexagon ppm is very close to the industry with specialist products that fill niches. Obviously, the acquisition by Hexagon ppm raises questions. These are not exactly the standard arguments for buying a software package and it is good to think about it. Finally, this guarantees the quality and compatibility of valuable CAD files. It also means a significant cost saving on education and licenses. This works better, faster and with the efficiency of one environment. This makes it immediately clear that you can do everything in one program with one storage format (DWG).

Alternative for SolidWorks and Inventor when it comes to mechanical engineering.Alternative for Revit when it comes to BIM.

BricsCAD has technologically passed that station at a high speed. A little over a year ago we wrote a widely read article entitled “AutoCAD? Or just BricsCAD?” That article now feels like being outdated and no longer relevant. What are the consequences?īricsys is a model of our rapidly changing world. Then there is the news that Bricsys has been taken over by Hexagon ppm. There are loads of radical innovations and improvements to mention.

A day after the BricsCAD conference in London, it still dizzies.
