# Autodesk pricing

Multi-product design and engineering software vendor (AutoCAD, Fusion 360, Revit, Maya, Civil 3D, Inventor), founded 1982. Positioned as the industry-standard alternative to Bentley MicroStation (engineering) and open-source FreeCAD (hobbyist). Distinctive for its Collections bundles (AEC, Product Design & Manufacturing, Media & Entertainment) that unlock 5+ apps per subscription. Priced $64-$375/seat/mo depending on product; flagship AutoCAD at $255/mo monthly / $213/mo annual (17% discount). Completed $3.6B all-cash acquisition of MaintainX in Aug 2026 — expanding beyond design into day-to-day operations. Publicly traded (NASDAQ: ADSK), $60B market cap.

## Recommendation

In other words, Autodesk is worth it for architects, engineers, designers, and manufacturers who need industry-standard CAD tools — particularly where deliverables must be DWG or RVT compatible for regulatory or client-handoff reasons. AutoCAD covers general 2D/3D drafting; Fusion 360 for integrated product design; Revit for BIM/architecture; Maya for 3D animation; AEC Collection bundles multiple apps for AEC firms. Steep learning curve on every product (dedicated training typical). Native integrations with Microsoft 365, Bluebeam, Procore, PandaDoc. Downside: subscription-only since 2016 (no perpetual license), per-product seat cost adds up fast for multi-app workflows, and the Fusion 360 free-for-personal-use policy has been progressively tightened.

## Alternative to consider

Free/open-source? Pick FreeCAD, Blender (3D animation), or LibreCAD (2D). Consumer product design? Onshape (cloud-native SaaS). Team collaboration on 2D? Bluebeam Revu. AEC-only alternative? Bentley MicroStation.

## Vendor context

Added 2026-08-12 as G2 top-55 brand-gap batch (rank #9). Multi-product vendor — tracked as single 'Autodesk' record with flagship AutoCAD as entry price ($255/mo monthly), following the same simplification approach as Adobe Creative Cloud. Prices verified against autodesk.com/pricing (US). Annual billing 17% cheaper than monthly. Multi-year discounts available (3-year contracts ~10% cheaper still). Aug 2026: completed $3.6B MaintainX acquisition — significant expansion into operations/facilities management SaaS. Publicly traded ADSK. Consider splitting into product-line records later (Autodesk AutoCAD, Autodesk Revit, etc.) if traffic justifies.
