autocad architecture vs. revit architecture

[michaeloureiro]

Hello everybody,

Just stepped upon autocad architecture. It seems to have alot of pretty useful tools. I was looking into changing to revit architecture, but now, quite frankly, I´m confused.

Does revit have much more to offer than autocad architecture?
Is revit to much of a change (compared to autocad architecture) for an architect willng to speed up productivity?

Any insight is appreciated.

On an Architecture forum I subscribe to two colleagues who have moved to Revit are wildly enthusiasic about it. They say it has a steep learning curve but then the productivity is wonderful. I wish I has changed to it but as I shall be retiring in a few weeks I could not justify the cost and learning for such a short time. It might be worth trying the free time limited download. Good luck!
