Plant3d 2015 is Just a addition of Extension 1, 2 & Service Pack2

[Arun_Kumar_K]

Had gone through the release news of Autodesk 2015 products, from this I can understand Plant3d 2015 is just a addition a Extension 1, 2 & Service Pack.

Don't understand why this much slow progress in the development, if it goes like this then it will end up like ASD one day.

Autodesk is a engineering software.

Dark theme is the major feature they have cited, who asked?, please keep what users want, otherwise please don't release product every year just for a sake, I am sure many wont go with subscription this year. I dunno how your marketing team will present a new feature.

[Arun_Kumar_K]

Please see how CADWORX, CADISON, AUTOPLANT improved with your platform. Their income wont be as equal to Autodesk, but their commitment to customer is always appreciable, but here we are made as fools.

Arun,

Extension 2 was released in December. There is a long company holiday later in December. We needed to be 100% finished with 2015 around the end of January. This doesn't leave a lot of time for new work.

We had two options. One, do not release a second extension and instead include the features in 2015. Or, release the extension and have essentially only the platform changes in 2015. 

We chose to release the functionality early. I can't see how this is a bad thing. It's especially a good thing for those customers who can't move to 2015 for a while because of corporate or client restrictions.

Thanks for your reply Peter, I always appreciate your good work here.

Certain small additions could had done in the interest of customers especially for half coupling in spec, Line no. display in report creator for selection instead writing a query, steel BOM in ortho, spec driven pipe supports. Hope you will take us happy through service packs and extensions, request for sooner release.

Don't mistake me here, I have spent more time with this software and looking for development at faster rate, so that will be easy for our adoption through out all our divisions.

I personally request Autodesk don't compare this software with sales, as it is not fully matured, your sales team will find difficulty in convincing customers unless it matures especially in Isometric and certain 3d features.

[Arun_Kumar_K]

Peter, I understand your time limitation and welcome your decision of releasing service pack in customers interest. Please keep additional features soon through extensions and service packs.

Peter, expecting many features from your team in extensions and service packs for 2015, expecting the product will be fully matured at the end of this year.
