I managed to create an impression of fighting a war with all CAD/BIM related software developers/suppliers. I do have great admiration for software developers – especially for the doers, working the trenches. Talk about being misunderstood! Let’s be sensible! Some represent European approach, others American.

CAD drawings are used during Level 0, but there is no sharing of the generated information models. Softwares like Aconex or Viewpoint can be used as the CDE. In a few words, BIM Level 1 is focusing on the transition from CAD to 2D and 3D pieces of information. To the contrary, everyone is free to use a distinct CAD model.

Choosing a CAD software-package in the nineties was a lot of fun. If you bought ArchiCAD you (supposedly) worked more in 3D, were extremely slow in cadding and had no programming skills.
