AutoCAD 2027

[pincopalla601]

I noticed the official trial ACAD page features the ACAD2027 link: is it an error, a beta version, or what?

Thanks!

I'm just a user, but
based on experience and considering today's date:

I assume Autodesk is preparing to release <spoiler> "AutoCAD 2027".

Why? The release usually doesn't happen for another two months,

and in the past, this kind of "oops" has happened repeatedly.

Autodesk can't or won't fully prepare the work in the background—usually, these things are withdrawn again shortly afterward until the official release date.

(And: The linked product is possible not the finale product! Also based on experience.)

Hi, typically this would happen if you have a Beta license on your computer. Did you happen to install an Alpha or Beta or you have never been involved in that? Or maybe if you are signed up on Feedback.autodesk.com you might have the pre-release license assigned?

I've never had something like that

BTW I guess they have fixed it, 2027 is now gone

Thanks, perfect. Thank you for reporting this.

If you are interested in the Beta let me know.

I’ve been closely following the recent developments in AutoCAD, especially the integration of AI tools into the user interface, and it genuinely excites me.

This is something I’ve been interested in for a long time. I’m very passionate about learning how these new tools work and how they connect with real design and drafting workflows. Having the chance to explore and practice with the beta version would mean a great deal to me and would help me grow my skills in a more meaningful way so I was wondering f I can get access to try it .

Thank you for your time and for being open to the community. I truly appreciate it

Yes you can access Beta program

AutoCAD 2027 requires Windows 11 24H2 or later, macOS Sonoma or later

This is speculation based on the retirement of Windows 10. My bet would be that 2027 would run on Windows 10. But there may be support issues if there are problems.

The first answer from support may be to upgrade to Windows 11.

Those that know signed an NDA to not speak of it just yet, everyone else is guessing: which are you?

Bonjour,

De toute façon, c'est l'évolution normale des logiciels de forcer le passage sur les dernières versions pour maintenir la rentabilité financière sous prétexte d'évolution technologique majeure mais qui finalement sont exploitées à 5% par les utilisateur lambdas. 

Par contre si Autocad 2027 fonctionne exclusivement sous windows 11, les grands comptes disposant encore de windows10 ne franchiront pas le cap immédiatement et se tourneront vers des produits équivalents comme ZWcad. Nous utilisons dans notre société ZWCAD et AUTOCAD pour la simple raison qu'un éditeur tier a développé un produit sous environnement AUtodesk. Le jour où ce produit métier fonctionnera sous les environnements CAO DAO BIM autres, je pense que le monopole des licences d'abonnement Autodesk en pâtira énormément

Every year the same problem. I have to waste the whole afternoon uninstalling and cleaning the 7,000 junk folders that Autodesk scatters across my hard drive and Windows registry, only to then get a clean installation of the new version full of errors.
