Download Your 2014 Autodesk Software!!

There have been a few things that are different for this year’s release of 2014 software.  I am labeling this year as the “quiet release”.  There was no huge announcement about the different features/functions coming out.  There were no big press releases that I saw.  If you want to see new workflows and features for AutoCAD, Vault, and Inventor … come to the Adraft Technology Conference on June 12th! (http://www.adraft.com/adraft-events.html ).  Yes, that is a shameless plug for our event!!!

One thing that has changed and affected some of us already is the media delivery.  Autodesk is not delivering media this year.  If you want the media, you can order it for $30, plus shipping and handling.  Autodesk is working to reduce costs and ecological footprint by having clients download the software.   If you are the Contract Manager or the Software Coordinator, you should have received an email that looked something like this as a signal for download:

 
If you need the media, then please let us know and we can order it for you.  The download on some of this software will take a long time, so please give yourself plenty of time and storage space.  We had one suite take approximately 4 hours to deliver digitally and were approximately 20GB in size, compressed.  Here is a link to the Autodesk Subscription Center where you can go to download your software:

Happy downloading!
