Good to know: AutoCAD is a subscription
For several years now, Autodesk no longer sells AutoCAD with a perpetual license. Here, you are purchasing a 3-year right of use. Throughout this period, you benefit from updates released by Autodesk. At the end of the term, access to the software stops if the subscription is not renewed, but your DWG files remain yours.
The AutoCAD 2025 interface
The ribbon at the top, the drawing in the center, the properties of the selected object on the right, and the command line at the bottom: everything you need to draw quickly.
