(no too arrogant to look at what the competition is saying or doing)ġ. I’m sure the combined talents of Autodesk were watching the live stream Eplan event last week on LinkedIn Too late on inventor/vault/ACADE integration These days, it's just a means to an end, the one chosen by my employer and/or their bean counters, and not necessarily the best thing available. ACADE doesn't even really feel like it's being maintained. Maybe I'm old (actually yes for sure I'm old) but I miss the old days when this software felt like it was actually being. And that's when they weren't releasing 'new' versions on a yearly basis. When I first started using Vanilla ACAD back at the turn of the century, it seemed like there were patches and hotfixes multiple times per year. To this day, the default ACADE catalog holds scores of obsolete components and product lines, while not including newer ones that are gaining in popularity every day. All users have to manage all their own catalog data because there are no convenient links or portals that keep product information up to date. Things that were intuitive in other programs are difficult in ACADE, or not even possible. This is especially true for those who have experience with competing software. Younger folks don't really seem to grasp how ACAD and ACADE work, and many of them seem to expect the software to do more work for them than ACADE does. Of course, the problem there is that no one wants to spend more if they can get by with what they have.Īnd so the salient question becomes, how long can they continue to 'just get by' with this software? Eventually those of us who are really cognizant with its ins and outs are going to retire, or change careers, or end up with an employer using other software. Only a few years ago I was kind of on the fence, but more and more it's getting to the point where, if my employer asked me whether we should spend more money on a different software, I'd be inclined to say yes. In my experience, this software seems to get less stable as time goes on and this strongly incentivizes me to not upgrade. I'm still using 2021 because what's the point of migration when there's nothing new? And in point of fact, if it were possible, I'd still be on 2017. To be completely frank and honest, I am disappointed with every year's version.
