#AUTODESK VIEWER FOR REVIT LICENSE#
Our current roadmap for Revit is publicly available at: We also empathize with customers that have gone through different license models in the last few years as we’ve transformed Autodesk to become a subscription-based company that can serve our customers better.
Expect to see progress here in the future. We do recognize the need to balance and have recently increased our development on the architectural capabilities of Revit. As with any business, there is the need to prioritize resources. Over the past several years, we increased our product development to serve engineering and construction customers, because we believe having a multi-disciplinary BIM model connected to construction enables better collaboration among all project team members.
While there are points it raised that we disagree with, there are also issues raised that we must take to heart, which highlight areas where we’ve fallen short.

#AUTODESK VIEWER FOR REVIT SOFTWARE#
In their letter, the firms speak out against the increasingly difficult task of utilizing Revit to pursue design innovation in the face of advancing production and fabrication capabilities while also highlighting the fact that the software's constantly changing fee structure has forced firms that rely on the software to endure additional costs with little added benefit to their work or employees.
Autodesk has issued a public statement following the publication of an open letter signed by a constellation of BIM-forward architecture firms decrying the lack of development and rising costs of using Autodesk Revit.Įarlier this week, firms that include Zaha Hadid Architects, Grimshaw, Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners, and at least a dozen others published an unprecedented open letter speaking out against the maker of the industry standard BIM software.
