Summary

The global market for Computer Aided Design Software was estimated to be worth US$ 21009 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 32448 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
Computer Aided Design Software defines the use of different software such as computer-aided designing (CAD) software, computer-aided engineering (CAE) software, computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software, electronic design automation (EDA) software, and architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) software. Computer Aided Design Software (CAD, CAM, CAE, AEC, & EDA) can be used by any organization which is required to carry out Engineering Software (CAD, CAM, CAE, AEC, & EDA), and is used in design automation and product design etc. Organizations of all sizes from the smallest companies requiring a more basic system to the large corporate businesses requiring a feature rich solution, will have use for Engineering Software (CAD, CAM, CAE, AEC, & EDA).
Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software has become a cornerstone of modern engineering, architecture, and product development across a wide range of industries. By enabling users to digitally visualize, simulate, and optimize designs before physical prototypes are made, CAD significantly reduces development time and cost while enhancing precision and innovation.
In recent years, CAD software has evolved from 2D drafting tools into sophisticated 3D modeling platforms integrated with simulation, parametric design, cloud collaboration, and even artificial intelligence. Major players such as AutoDesk (AutoCAD, Fusion 360), Dassault Systèmes (SolidWorks, CATIA), Siemens (NX), and PTC (Creo) dominate the global market. These platforms support not only mechanical and architectural design but also electrical systems, industrial design, and product lifecycle management (PLM).
CAD is increasingly embedded in broader digital workflows such as Building Information Modeling (BIM) in architecture and Digital Twin technology in manufacturing. With the rise of remote work and global collaboration, cloud-based CAD solutions are gaining popularity for real-time design review, version control, and access from any device.
The future of CAD will likely involve greater integration with artificial intelligence for generative design, automation of repetitive tasks, and real-time simulation. However, barriers such as high software costs, steep learning curves, and IP protection in cloud environments still need to be addressed. As industries continue to digitize, CAD will remain at the heart of smart manufacturing and digital engineering.
