Get Started with ARES Commander

ARES Commander is a switch made easy – providing a familiar look & feel that is intuitive for any experienced CAD user. Much more than a cost-effective alternative for DWG-editing, ARES Commander is making no compromises in features and innovations.

New CAD Features in ARES Commander 2024

When you can customize your CAD environment and workflows to meet your needs, you can work more comfortably and efficiently. And when you can share your frequently used tools and data layouts with colleagues, your entire department can realize these benefits.

ARES Commander 2024 lets you customize tool palettes like never before—and even import them from AutoCAD®. Thanks to the expanded availability of the Ribbon user interface, Mac and Linux users can now choose the interface option that Windows users have long enjoyed. And with the new TopoPoints module, ARES Commander users get the ability to import/export coordinates.

ARES Kudo adds the Agility of the Cloud
to ARES Commander

ARES Kudo is inbuilt in ARES Commander and allows you to access, create and modify DWG files stored in popular cloud storage services such as Google Drive®, Box®, Dropbox® and OneDrive®. Any modification you save in ARES Commander is instantly synchronized.
Your files follow you across all your computers and mobile devices and are always up-to-date.

Share a URL to view your drawing online

With ARES Kudo you can generate a View-only link to share it with your contacts. It is a simple URL they can click on to see your file online. Nothing to pay, nothing to install, they just see it in their Internet browser. It is a great method to ask for comment or validation.
No more wonders if it is the latest version, the URL is live updated when you make any modification. It becomes the single source of truth of your project. It saves you also the time to generate a PDF version and you no longer need to send again and again the file after each modification.
Unlike when you send a file by email, you keep also full control when you share such a View-only link. Your contacts cannot edit your file and you can cut access at any time.

View & Modify DWG drawings in your internet browser

ARES Kudo includes also a full set of features to create and modify your drawings online. As ARES Kudo runs in your Internet browser you have nothing to install and nothing to update. Although you may use ARES Commander on your main computers, you can use ARES Kudo to quickly access and edit drawings online on any other computer. Your drawings follow you anywhere and you are always ready to make a quick edit.
ARES Kudo is included with any ARES Commander subscription as part of our unique ARES Trinity of CAD concept.
