How to Spread your Time and Resources Across Different CAD Software

How many CAD programs do you manage? Long ago it was probably just one – AutoCAD or some other 2D design software. But with the advent of 3D design, and all that comes with it (design review software, mobile integration software, simulation tools, field apps, collaboration software, etc.), CAD managers have their hands full.

If you are managing many pieces of CAD software, you’re probably wondering how you can optimize project workflows and where it’s best to focus most of your energies.
