Can CADGlobal Suite open my existing AutoCAD DWG files?
Yes. CADGlobal Suite uses native DWG/DXF format. It opens, edits, and saves all AutoCAD files from version 2.5 through 2026 without any conversion. Your existing drawings, blocks, templates, and plot styles work immediately.
Is CADGlobal Suite legitimate licensed software?
Yes. CADGlobal Suite is made in the EU, established in 1999. CADGlobal has 8,000+ customers across 25+ countries. Every licence comes with a certificate of authenticity.
What is the difference between perpetual and subscription licensing?
A perpetual license means you pay once and own the software forever. You keep using it even if you never pay again. A subscription (like AutoCAD) means you pay every year and lose access the moment you stop paying. CADGlobal Suite offers perpetual licenses. AutoCAD is subscription-only since 2016.
What if my firm gets audited for software compliance?
CADGlobal Suite comes with a genuine perpetual licence certificate. You are 100% compliant. Unlike pirated AutoCAD, which carries legal risk and fines, a CADGlobal Suite licence is yours permanently and audit-ready.
Do I need to retrain my team?
No. CADGlobal Suite uses the same interface, commands, and shortcuts as AutoCAD. Most users are productive within the first hour. CADGlobal Academy also provides training courses if needed.
