AutoCAD & Autodesk Partner & Reseller in India

Autodesk software is now sold by subscription rather than as a perpetual licence, which changes it from a capital purchase into a recurring cost that has to be budgeted for the life of the work. That is the first thing to be clear about, because older procurement assumptions no longer apply.

The second is which product. AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT are priced differently because LT leaves out 3D modelling and the programming interfaces, and for a drafting team doing pure 2D that is a sensible saving. For anyone touching 3D, or any add-in, it is the wrong purchase and cannot be upgraded in place.

AutoCAD, AutoCAD LT or a collection — and why there is no perpetual licence

Two things surprise buyers here. Autodesk sells subscriptions rather than perpetual licences, so this is an ongoing cost rather than a one-off purchase. And the cheaper option is cheaper for a specific reason: AutoCAD LT omits 3D modelling and the programming interfaces, which is fine for 2D drafting and disabling for anything else.

• 2D only, or 3D as well. If anyone needs 3D, or any add-in or script, LT is the wrong choice and discovering that after purchase is a full repurchase.
• Whether a collection costs less than separate products. Where a team uses several Autodesk applications, the industry collections are often cheaper than the sum of individual subscriptions — worth calculating rather than assuming.
• Occasional users. Autodesk offers token-based access for people who need the software a few times a year, which is usually far cheaper than a full named subscription for them.
• Named users, not shared logins. Licensing is per named person and sharing a login breaches the terms — a real audit exposure, not a technical limitation.
• File compatibility with clients and consultants, since drawing version differences cause more project friction than feature gaps do.
