Autodesk cloud enables access to designs

Autodesk, Inc., a provider in 3D design, engineering and entertainment software, introduced Autodesk Cloud, a collection of more than a dozen web-based capabilities, products and services that enable customers to extend their desktops with greater mobility, new viewing and sharing capabilities, and more computing power, helping them better design, visualise and simulate their ideas. In addition, Autodesk Subscription customers will now have exclusive access to cloud-based, high-performance rendering and design optimisation, and enhanced collaboration capabilities. Autodesk Subscription now provides 3 GB of online storage for each software license on Subscription for greater access to design and engineering documents, anywhere, anytime.

For more than a decade, Autodesk has embraced the power of the cloud to extend the functionality of our design solutions and help our customers work more effectively, said Amar Hanspal, senior vice president, Platform Solutions and Emerging Business at Autodesk. With Autodesk Cloud, we are demonstrating an even greater commitment to helping our customers solve the worlds toughest design and engineering challenges.

"We believe the time for cloud has arrived in India," said Jayant Keswani, Head - Marketing, Autodesk India & SAARC. The Autodesk Cloud will help our Indian customers both large and small - drive better cost control and greater competitiveness, especially in the key industries of Manufacturing and Infrastructure, both of which are important contributors to Indias GDP growth, he added.

Autodesk has been a pioneer in cloud-based applications for the design industry starting more than a decade ago with Autodesk Buzzsaw and more than a dozen cloud-based offerings currently available to customers are now encompassed as part of Autodesk Cloud. Autodesk Cloud provides a powerful foundation to enable all Autodesk customers to begin using the cloud to access and store their work from anywhere; to view their work through web browsers or mobile devices; and to share their work with other users, even users without Autodesk software. Cloud applications such Autodesk Cloud documents, AutoCAD WS and the Autodesk Design Review mobile app provide users with the freedom to work where they can be most effective, and to view, edit and share designs anywhere and with almost anyone. AutoCAD WS and the Autodesk Design Review mobile app are available today on the iOS App Store.

Additional cloud services exclusive to Autodesk Subscription customers give designers, engineers and digital artists sophisticated new capabilities, such as high-performance 3D visual communication, simulation and collaboration that were once limited to organisations with privileged access to expensive, high-end supercomputing centers.
