Autodesk AEC Collection Update

Autodesk is adding products to the AEC Collection and ending the sale of new subscriptions to some individual products.

Effective September 7th, 2017, Autodesk is expanding the scope and value of the AEC Collection to deliver a better range of industry-leading solutions that help customers design, engineer, and construct higher-quality, more predictable building and civil infrastructure projects.

Autodesk wants customers to receive a better value from their subscriptions to the AEC Collection, and make it easier for them to implement design-to-construction workflows. With these changes, it is easier for you to access interoperable software for analysis, visualization, detailing, and fabrication that works with the core design tools they use every day.

On September 7th, all current AEC Collection subscribers will see changes in their Autodesk Account and Autodesk desktop app that reflect the new entitlements, and customers’ Contract Manager and Software Coordinator of record will receive an email describing the new product entitlements. Existing serial numbers for the products already activated will not be affected, and subscribers will receive new serial numbers to use for the new product entitlements.
