BricsCAD Lite is highly compatible with AutoCAD®
BricsCAD Lite V25 – Volume Perpetual (LIT-VL-PER-NEW-V25-1Y):
A comprehensive 2D CAD solution tailored for organisations requiring multiple licences for their design and drafting teams. This perpetual licence grants indefinite access to BricsCAD Lite V25, ensuring a one-time investment without recurring subscription fees. BricsCAD Lite is highly compatible with industry-standard DWG files, facilitating seamless integration into existing workflows. Its familiar interface allows users transitioning from other CAD platforms to adapt quickly, minimising downtime and training requirements. Additionally, the software supports LISP routines, enabling automation of repetitive tasks to enhance productivity.
Opting for the volume perpetual licence offers several advantages. It allows for simplified deployment across multiple machines using a single licence key, streamlining the management process for larger teams. This approach not only reduces administrative overhead but also provides a cost-effective solution by consolidating licensing under a unified agreement. While the perpetual licence ensures indefinite access to the software, organisations can choose to add an annual maintenance plan to receive regular updates and technical support, ensuring the software remains current with evolving industry standards.
This version does not automatically include annual updates or technical support following the first year's subscription, although maintenance can be added as a separate purchase to receive support and software updates.
To receive updates and support, users would need to purchase an additional Annual Maintenance plan such as:
BricsCAD Lite V25 – Volume Annual Maintenance New (LIT-VL-MNT-NEW-NA-1Y)
This maintenance option allows perpetual license holders to access all updates released during the maintenance period and provides support from BricsCAD's technical team. This setup is designed to give users flexibility, as they can choose to add maintenance only if and when they need it.
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.
