On September 12, professional associations representing architects in Denmark, Finland, Iceland and Norway sent a letter to Autodesk CEO Andrew Anagnost criticizing current limitations of the company's Revit product and urging the hastened development of other design tools as well as pricing commensurate with the level of development dollars devoted to design products.
"Every day, digital design leaders around the world wrestle with software, which at its core is 20 years old and incapable of the potential of multi-core computing and graphics power designed to process within today's real and virtual workstations," read the letter signed by leaders of the Association of Practising Architects in Norway, the Association of Finnish Architects’ Offices, the Danish Association of Architectural firms and SAMARK and the Association of Architectural Firms in Iceland.
