"After a short period of adaptation, the transition to BricsCAD did not have any major difficulties. Same friendly environment and workspace; very few differences due to similar commands."

Retraining fear is the #1 reason teams that want to leave AutoCAD still don't.
|
|
Fair worry — most software switches do mean starting over. BricsCAD is built specifically so this one doesn't. Here's what actually happens on day one:
|
Q: Will our existing DWG files open correctly?
Yes. Native DWG format, no conversion step — files open exactly as they were saved.
|
Q: Will our LISP routines and custom commands still work?
Yes. Full LISP, command line, and CUI support — most existing customizations carry straight over.
|
Q: Will the interface feel completely different?
No. Same ribbon layout, same command line, same tool palettes — deliberately familiar by design.
|
Q: How long before the team is productive again?
Most users experience minimal downtime and are productive from day one, thanks to the familiar interface and command structure.
|
Q: Do we have to switch to another subscription?
No — that's the other half of the switch. Unlike AutoCAD, BricsCAD still offers a perpetual license option: pay once, own that version forever, with no forced renewal to keep working.
