Going forward, I guesstimate that there can be 100k to 400k potential subscribers of the $99/month DraftSight standard plan. DraftSight remains a very affordable product even for people living/working in developing countries. The top Filipino draftsmen can earn up to $12.4k/year. The Filipino architectural draftsmen have average salaries of $4,780/year. Most DraftSight free users can afford to pay $99/year. SketchUp Pro is another emerging challenger to AutoCAD. Dassault's pricing is also cheaper than SketchUp Pro's professional annual subscription fees. The DraftSight 2D and DraftSight Premium 3D annual subscription fees are still notably lower than Autodesk's monthly/annual plans. I did not find substantial online whining against Dassault's decision to stop releasing/maintaining a free DraftSight. The 2018 and older versions of DraftSight will also cease to work by December 31, 2019. There is no free version of the new DraftSight 2019. The Potential Economic BenefitĭraftSight 2019 is Dassault Systèmes' new subscription-only 2D/3D CAD product. Dassault's asking price is still much cheaper than the $400/year AutoCAD LT. There are Filipino companies that are now paying $99/year for DraftSight 2019. This margin decline could probably reverse after free version users of DraftSight start paying $99/month. However, over the last five years, its net income margin went down from 20.56% (in June 2014) to 18.41% this year. Going forward, the company's decision to stop giving away a free but powerful CAD software products can improve its net margins. DASTY now touts a 30% YTD return of 30.32%. I concluded DASTY can disrupt Autodesk's ( ADSK) architecture and BIM (Building Information Modeling) Computer Aided Design (CAD) software business. I argued last year that Dassault Systèmes ( OTCPK:DASTY) was a buy.
