Look, I don't want to jump in here (OK, strike that - maybe I HAVE been
sitting on my hands gritting my teeth and wanting to jump in), but the fact
is, there ARE firms who have tried Revit, decided it was not for them, and
have gone to ADT. And yes, they are using ADT as ADT, not AutoCAD. In fact,
I was told by one CAD Manager of a very large firm when he hired me to come
and help them out with some ADT implementation issues that if I even
mentioned the word "Revit", I would probably be thrown bodily out the door.
Since I don't work at any of those firms, but am their consultant instead, I
cannot and will not divulge who they are without their permission. And
frankly, I find this whole stupid, lame argument, with all of it's
misrepresentations, speculations and obfuscations, not worth the effort to
get their permission. :-)
Suffice to say, whoever said that "nobody is going from Revit to ADT" (and
my cache has dropped that original post) is wrong.
Bottom line - use what works for you, your firm and your culture. If you're
not sure which one that is, then try them out on a pilot project, get a good
demo of both, and/or talk to others whose opinions you respect and whose
biases (which we all have) you know and can take into account.

> Brian, I'd like to hear one real-world example. Really I do. I'm not being
cheeky. I'm working for a reseller now, who deals with both products
extensively, and would really like to know who has moved from Revit to ADT
and why, for we get customers asking all the time about going the other
way... It would be good to know why someone decided to go back.
