Carlson Survey with embedded AutoCAD (OEM) runs standalone with an embedded version of the current AutoCAD OEM software.
This purchase includes a perpetual license of Carlson Survey and a perpetual license of AutoCAD OEM. A perpetual license, essentially, means that you are purchasing the software instead of renting it for a period of time.
Description
Carlson’s desktop software must be installed with a CAD platform such as IntelliCAD, AutoCAD or embedded AutoCAD (OEM). Carlson Software includes a perpetual license of IntelliCAD with their “For CAD” modules but also allows users to install the program on top of your own separately purchased license of a full AutoCAD-based program such as AutoCAD, Map or Civil 3D.
Carlson Survey and Carlson Takeoff are the only 2 programs that can be purchased with an embedded AutoCAD (OEM) license.
ALL Carlson desktop products work natively in the latest DWG format. This means that you create DWG files, you open DWG files and you save DWG files – there is no need to import, export or convert to others using a different CAD-based program.
Your purchase of Carlson includes a perpetual license of the Carlson program and either IntelliCAD or embedded AutoCAD (OEM).
Carlson Software can be purchased as individual modules or by bundling 2 or more products at a discounted price so you only pay for what you need!
