BricsCAD Reviews & Product Details

The price compared to AutoCAD. It seems to run smoother as well and not as laggy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's parametric block design compared to AutoCAD's dynamic blocks. I HATE how the visibility states can be outside of the block so that when you explode a block that has visibilities will then be put into the dwg outside of the block. This causes crazy lag if you need to explode multiple blocks. This requires you to use the DEPARAMETRIZE command before you explode, but this also removes the imported fields inside the blocks. Not ideal. I also do not like how when you copy and paste an entity inside of a block that is tied to a visibility, it copies and pastes that visibility again. (Because you can have more than one visibility inside of a block... cool idea, but now I see why AutoCAD doesn't allow it) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The CAD capability is perfect and the 3D modeling and quick Mechanical drawings generation through this platform is amazing. The solution offeres all in one CAD functionalities and with experience with similar product implementation was very simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing to underline from this CAD system and the final 3D production quality is nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- User Interface Familiar to most users (Similar to older versions of Autocad)

- Easy to Learn for experienced designers from other platforms.

- Pay one time get it forever.

- Upgrades to new versions are not expensive.

- Full version has BIM.

- For Metalic Structure Design (Mechanical Module) , has almost all Comercial shapes available worldwide.

- The Layout Mode is Excelente and Easy to Produce tech drawings from 3d models, the "Base View" and "Projected View" commands works very well.

- One of the Best to produce, "Pre-feed" drawings and "Sho drawings" in one singl platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Not the fastest software in the market.

- Not the best for complete "Plants" design, does not manage very well big files.

- The "Sheet Metal" module still needs work, does not feel completely developed yet.

- Tool Bars, contain too much information.

- It is Overwhelming to sart using wihtout help, due to it´s hundreds of visible "buttons".

- Old Design interface, Looks old. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it's a great working tool, I'm a cadist draftsman and I use it every day, some functions are very specific to each scenary, brics as I said has good specifications for architecture and design engineering, which helps me a lot Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think there should be a bigger database of layers to be used, it's possible to import layers, which is good but I think there should be a broader starter kit to cover a lot of variety Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The easy to use it and the simplicity in the commands makes it so user friendly to use. Its at par with any CAD software , in-fact better and faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The personal biggest problem me is right-clicking on the mouse because it's not the same as AutoCAD, the problem if you used to work in AutoCad is hard to get used to BricsCAD Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use , easy to installation,ease of integration . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't find any such thing to dislike , but need to inprrovement in layering part of the tool . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

BricsCAD is a Modern CAD software that has so many tools & commands based on AI-ML & that is literally the way i am designing till now, it is a smart, fast, easy & cost-effective product with several licensing options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing that I don't like in the software, still, this software is evolving with every releases so i believe there will be many tools related to GIS also be get added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cad software with parametric blocks ..very user friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing specific but right clicking of mouse as it is my personal habit Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I license BricsCAD Ultimate along with Twinmotion, 3Dconnexion and Google Drive. The combination provides a state-of-the-art toolset that works both off-line and online and allows me to design with full BIM detail, create photorealistic 3D renderings, fly-thru digital twins, and share detailed BIM data, renderings, and drawings with contractors. Bricsys customer support is excellent. The ability to own a toolset that works completely offline makes it indispensable when traveling around the world with my laptop. Finally, I loved that BricsCAD, Twinmotion and 3Dconnexion offered a perpetual license option and it was affordable even as I am still 'tapering off' one of my Autodesk subscriptions. As I approach the lighter work schedules of "retirement", I love the idea that my software will not stop working if I am unable to pay a thousand dollars each quarter.

BricsCAD is extremely customizable and it can take some time and experimentation to develop optimal workflows and configurations. It is AutoCAD with a really nice. 3D BIM capability, but don't expect the out-of-the-box features to enable integration between 2D drawings and 3D BIM workflows. I suggest you plan to spend time with the tool to build workflows, schedules, templates and components (because there are few/no 3rd party component libraries integrated out-of-the-box).

It is very much similar to AutoCAD. People already using AutoCAD don't need any special training for working on BricsCAD. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't find anything negative for BricsCAD Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
