#18 – Customer Service Is King

#012 – AutoCAD 2023 – REVIEW

(NOTE: new blog numbering sequence – ties into the Not Just CAD! LinkedIn newsletter here).

Due to the big house move, March was an insane month involving classroom training […]

#015 – It’s All About The View (And The Viewers)

Welcome to another issue of Not Just CAD!, published in numerous forms; on the CADFMconsultants website, in the Not Just CAD! LinkedIn newsletter and on the Autodesk Community Voices page.
