  • Industry-specific features and intelligent objects for architecture, mechanical engineering, and electrical design.
  • Draft, annotate and design 2D geometry and 3D models with solids, surfaces and mesh objects.
  • Automate tasks such as comparing drawings, adding blocks, and creating schedules.

How Autodesk AutoCAD integrates with Asite

The integration provides simple and secure access to files wherever and whenever needed.

User's tasks get simpler, processes become more efficient, and you can integrate your data with business processes. For these teams, deeper connections between key business tools to files can transform how they work.
