Have you been using Autodesk products for a longtime, tell us about what you have designed and done and your experience over the past 25 years with Autodesk products. Maybe you started with AutoCAD 86 or version 2.18 and designed a building and were glad to ditch the pencil, and now use Autodesk Revit. Send them to me at shaan@autodesk.com with the subject line of "25 Years of Autodesk". we would love to hear your story about how you have used Autodesk for many years maybe even 25 years and what it has meant to you and your career.

Cheers,
Shaan

  1. I couldn’t help but think of this Talking Heads song after reading your post.
    …And every dream has a name
    And names tell your story
    Do you know who you are?
    You’re the dream operator
    “Dream Operator,” True Stories, Talking Heads.

  2. 25 years is a long way, but AutoCAD has been helping me in many ways since I am using the time I am using it.
    Cheers to Autodesk
