20X faster! Uncover dramatic time savings when using Civil 3D vs. AutoCAD

Up to 95% productivity gain

A recent study compared how engineers would complete 10 typical civil design workflows using Civil 3D versus AutoCAD, including: parcel design, surface creation and analysis, and piping and drainage design.

Findings demonstrate that Civil 3D allows users to complete project tasks up to 20x faster than using AutoCAD.
