Description
BricsCAD Lite is highly compatible with AutoCAD®
BricsCAD Lite V25 - Network License 5-Pack Annual Maintenance New (LIT-NW-MNT-NEW5pk-NA-1Y):
This annual maintenance plan for organisations using the BricsCAD Lite V25 network license for five users. This maintenance plan comprises:
-
APPLIES TO NETWORK LICENCES: It is specifically for networked setups, allowing concurrent access to BricsCAD Lite V25 by up to five users on the same network.
-
ANNUAL MAINTENANCE: Provides coverage for one year, offering all software updates (both minor and major) during the period, ensuring that users have the latest tools and features.
-
TECHNICAL SUPPORT: Includes access to BricsCAD's technical support services, enabling users to receive assistance from qualified experts on software issues or questions as they arise.
-
COST-EFFECTIVE MAINTENANCE: Maintenance is an affordable way to keep software up-to-date and supported, particularly for network licenses where multiple users share access, making it a scalable solution for growing or project-based teams.
This annual maintenance plan ensures that organisations using BricsCAD Lite V25 in a networked environment can maintain current software and have access to technical support, keeping operations efficient and minimizing software disruptions.
This annual maintenance plan designed for users of BricsCAD V25 Lite. This maintenance package provides access to updates and technical support for a year, including both minor fixes and major software upgrades, which keep the software up-to-date with the latest features and improvements. Additionally, it grants access to BricsCAD’s technical support team, ensuring users can receive guidance and troubleshooting assistance from qualified experts during the contract period.
BricsCAD Lite is compatible with existing AutoCAD® workflows, allowing users to transition seamlessly and continue working with their existing customisations. The software also supports LISP routines, enabling the automation of repetitive tasks to improve efficiency.
Ideal for professionals in architecture, engineering, and construction, BricsCAD Lite delivers powerful 2D drafting capabilities at an affordable price.
BricsCAD Lite V25 is designed to optimise 2D drafting with enhanced efficiency and compatibility features for AutoCAD users, offering robust support for the DWG format, command compatibility, and familiar tools. Key features include new machine learning-driven commands that improve task automation, such as the BLOCKIFY tool, which identifies repeated geometry and converts it to blocks, reducing file size. The COPYGUIDED function enables precise alignment when copying entities, and the Drawing Explorer centralises drawing management for easier navigation across layers, blocks, and external references.
The latest update also introduces an enhanced Sheet Set Manager for improved collaboration, particularly useful in multi-user environments. Additionally, the Lite version includes the updated Quad cursor menu, offering predictive command options to speed up workflow and reduce manual input. Interoperability is bolstered by full LISP compatibility, so existing AutoCAD routines can be utilized, and custom automation can be developed efficiently.
The platform is built to support both traditional drafting and more complex workflows, making it a flexible solution for professionals seeking a cost-effective alternative to AutoCAD without sacrificing functionality or speed. For users transitioning from AutoCAD, BricsCAD Lite provides familiar tools and a seamless experience with no need to adjust existing DWG-based workflows.

Benefits of Network Licences
Network Licenses offers several advantages, particularly for organisations and teams who need flexible, shared access to CAD software. Key benefits include:
-
CONCURRENT USER ACCESS: A network license allows multiple users within the same organisation to access BricsCAD Lite from different computers. However, only a set number of users can access it simultaneously (in this case, up to five), which is ideal for teams that don't all need the software at the same time.
-
COST EFFICIENCY: Instead of purchasing individual licenses for each team member, a network license allows organisations to buy only as many seats as typically needed concurrently. This can significantly reduce costs, particularly for large teams or departments with fluctuating usage.
-
CENTRALISED LICENCE MANAGEMENT: Network licenses are managed from a central server, simplifying deployment and license administration. IT teams can easily allocate access based on project needs, enabling a streamlined, organised approach to software management.
-
PERPETUAL & FLEXIBLE MAINTENANCE OPTIONS: With a perpetual network license, organisations make a one-time purchase without needing annual renewals. Adding annual maintenance provides access to software updates and support, ensuring the software remains current and supported, which is useful for staying up-to-date with new features or regulatory standards.
-
.dwg COMPATIBILITY: BricsCAD Lite is compatible with .dwg files, the industry-standard CAD file format. This allows seamless collaboration and file sharing with other software, making it easier for organisations to integrate BricsCAD Lite into existing workflows.
The BricsCAD Lite V25 Network License is especially suited for organisations in architecture, engineering and construction where collaborative CAD work is frequent, and cost-effective, scalable software access is beneficial.
