BricsCAD Lite V25 - Volume 3-Year Subscription Renewal (LIT-VL-SUB-REN-NA-3Y)

  • Description

    BricsCAD Lite is highly compatible with AutoCAD®

    BricsCAD Lite V25 - Volume 3-Year Subscription Renewal (LIT-VL-SUB-REN-NA-3Y):

    Extends access to BricsCAD Lite V25 for organisations with existing volume licences, ensuring uninterrupted use of this efficient 2D CAD software for an additional three years. This renewal maintains the software's compatibility with industry-standard DWG formats, facilitating seamless integration into current workflows. BricsCAD Lite's familiar interface enables users transitioning from other CAD platforms to adapt swiftly, minimising downtime and training requirements. Additionally, the software supports LISP routines, allowing for the automation of repetitive tasks to enhance productivity.​

    Opting for a 3-year volume subscription renewal offers several advantages. It provides cost savings compared to annual renewals, as multi-year subscriptions often include discounts, reducing overall expenditure. Additionally, it locks in the current subscription rate, shielding organisations from potential annual price increases, which is valuable for budgeting and financial planning for long-term projects. The extended subscription period also reduces administrative tasks associated with annual renewals, allowing teams to focus more on their projects. Furthermore, subscribers benefit from continuous access to all software updates and technical support during the subscription term, ensuring they have the latest tools and assistance when needed.​​

    The volume licensing agreement allows you to use BricsCAD within a defined user base. You can install the software using a single license key valid for every user. The volume license option is available for perpetual or subscription licensing and includes a 1-year maintenance contract.

     

     

     

    BricsCAD Lite is a cost-effective 2D CAD software designed for users who need reliable drafting tools with a familiar interface. It offers essential features for creating precise 2D drawings, including support for industry-standard DWG files, ensuring smooth collaboration and easy file sharing.

    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 utilised, 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.
