Question

whats the difference between AutoCAD and the specialized versions such as: Civil 3D, Mechanical, Architecture, Electrical and so on? I can't decide which one to download? I don't really feel like downloading and installing several different varieties of the same program. Is there one version that covers all the capabilities and features in one download?

Answer 1

autocad is a generalized version whereas the others are specialized for that particular purpose..if you want to do some advanced stuff then do download the specialized version as per your requirement..
