Autodesk Design Review 2013 will continue to be available for download from our website, but Autodesk is focusing on delivering enhanced cloud and mobile workflows that integrate with desktop collaboration. Enhancements to the desktop viewing experience will most likely come from that work, and not a desktop-only solution like Design Review. The DWF file format did not change as part of the 2014 releases, so Autodesk Design Review 2013 works perfectly with the 2014 product line.

Thanks for the update, Scott. But an online tool isn't going fly very well when the vast majority of our users *aren't* mobile, and bouncing up to the cloud and back is less efficient than working on files on our internal network. Once there is reliable and fully private or in-house cloud service then we can give that a go.

I envision an offline mode for web-based tools for situations like when people are out in the middle of nowhere, on a plane, or deep in a basement.

Is the link for download at http://www.autodesk.com/designreview not what you want? I know it checks your system and then downloads what's missing. There are separate installers for Autodesk DWG TrueView and Autodesk Design Review. I am not aware of one EXE that has both of them and all of the possible dependencies.

Thank you for the question. I am not here to delude anyone. If you want an electronic review process, given the current state of Autodesk 360, Autodesk Design Review is still the way to go. But the original question was is Design Review being discontinued, and the answer is yes, it will eventually be replaced by Autodesk 360. Until that time, the 2013 version is available for download from the Autodesk site and works with the 2014 product line since the DWF format did not change.

Discontinuing DR is a bad move for me. I have someone who does not have / nor need Autocad, but does review my drawings, and designreview is a perfect tool for him to use.

Forcing us, if we choose to continue reviewing drawings, to the cloud. Where some people, for whatever reason, prefer not to go.
Not cool, not cool.
