Wilbri Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 My humble appologies to the administrator and the forum. This topic is definately deviated. So will return to the subject matter when my client's software problem has been resolved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Solidworks and Inventor are both more expensive than Autocad. Inventor includes AutoCAD for "free". Inventor Fusion is free http://labs.autodesk.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbri Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 Cad64 I am talking South Africa here, and although I cannot vouch for Inventor which most probably is in line with Rivit, I would in terms of business in this country, assume the prices to be comparitive with full SolidWorks, which costs $5600.00. If it is not then there is a serious problem as we also have the alternative of Alibre at 30% the cost. As previously mentioned Autodesk product prices are astronomical in this country and why I ask, as we have become a developing country? Once again my plea is to return to the topic under discussion.

Cad64 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Inventor includes AutoCAD for "free". Yes, but it's still more expensive than just buying Autocad. The OP wants Autocad, but can't afford to pay $4,000. So how is he going to swing $5,300? And that's the U.S. cost. I don't know what the cost is in South Africa? Double maybe?

Cad64 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Wilibri, you should just start a new thread when you're ready to get back to business. This thread is already 7 pages long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
