I see things that improve the workflow, but nothing revolutionary like it used to be. I see that that the new, good stuff in NX won't bleed over to Solid Edge, whereas the Solid Edge staff created Synchronous Technology, which was then sent to NX. I can't believe they haven't talked about these topics, but I can believe they have not come up with good answers to them.ĭo you suppose the C-suite dudes are victims of solipsism and honestly don't see the flies in the ointment? That objections from people like me have no value until the inevitable online hack makes them see differently? Future of Solid Edge Reading coverage of Solid Edge University, I am a bit horrified. Talking with them at the event, their staff did not have good answers for some of my primary objections to the cloud and subscriptions. I am not sure that subscriptions-only is carved in stone for Autodesk.

In time, I think the expense of subscriptions will not work out for CAD companies any more than mainframes did for users. Future of the Cloud I don't see cloud for CAD ultimately being the only model for anyone. Some of these same guys also tell me that Fusion is more like Solid Edge in how it works, so over time I will find out. Unless you use Inventor as your core modeling program, the rest of us just use Inventor as a way to place parts so we can use HSM.

They will, when they start acquiring wealth and realize they have things to protect.Įverything I have been told by both users and people in the employ of Autodesk - those who are past users of software like Solid Edge or Solidworks - is that hardly any use HSM with Inventor. Lots of Fusion 360 adopters are small startups and with their millennial mindsets they don't get the value of intellectual property - yet. "Follow the money," I always have been told future-fee building is the only thing I can think of that makes sense here for greater Autodesk profits in the future. Not one person I asked at the Autodesk event was willing to say this will never happen. I believe that this is the unspoken answer to the cheap upfront costs they offer now, and how they intend to make more money in the future over today's permanent-seat model. Think of Autodesk's online rendering "cloud credits" as the first of these. I am certain this is part of the future fee-building forced-ecosystem of additional unavoidable charges, such as per-gigabyte cloud storage fees, server usage, bandwidth fees, and so on.

As it turns out, it works offline mostly, but to save a change, start to edit, or create a file I have to do so online using their server - wherever it is, and with whomever Autodesk selected for this purpose. So, I began a more serious inquiry into Fusion 360.

Here is what I came away with: Future of Autodesk I don't understand how Autodesk will make it in the future, which seems primarily to be Fusion 360, when it is so much cheaper than Inventor Pro HSM - and even Fusion Ultimate is priced at $1,500/year , nearly half the subscription price of Inventor Pro HSM. A good chunk of the Autodesk leadership was there to hear our feedback.

They spent a ton of cash on us and treated us quite well flying us round-trip and staying at the Palmer House Hilton, and a rooftop night at a Chicago Cubs game. It was an effort to establish a group of users who will give the company feedback and who are (I imagine) regarded as litmus paper for how things are going. They paid the way for around 30 users who were selected in ways that I don't know. I attended the user group meeting from Autodesk during IMTS.
