What Is BricsCAD Ultimate?

BricsCAD Ultimate is built for practices whose work crosses more than one CAD discipline. Instead of choosing between BIM and Mechanical, both toolsets are available within the same BricsCAD environment, alongside the core drafting and modelling tools used across everyday CAD work. This gives teams one platform for projects that move between building design, mechanical design and general DWG workflows.

Why We Compare Two Editions, Not Four

With Mechanical and BIM already containing the whole of Pro, and with Pro containing the entirety of Lite, the only purchase a customer weighs against Ultimate is where the two specialist editions are required.

Tools & Features In Ultimate

BricsCAD Ultimate includes the capabilities of Lite and Pro together with the full BIM and Mechanical toolsets, all within one installation. Switch workspace to bring the tools for each discipline into focus without changing application or licence. 

Everything In BricsCAD Lite

The full 2D toolset. Drafting, precision tools, editing, annotation, blocks and references, layers, layouts and plotting, and the whole interface and customisation toolset with LISP included.

Everything In BricsCAD Pro

3D solid and direct modelling, parametric modelling, rendering and visualisation, point clouds, drawing views generated off the model, and support for compiled third-party applications.

Everything In BricsCAD Mechanical

Sheet metal design and automatic unfolding, assembly design, associative bills of materials and balloons, a standard parts library to ISO, DIN, JIS and ANSI, and the Mechanical Browser.

Everything In BricsCAD BIM

Explore Your Own Projects

At NORI CAD, we offer live demonstrations using your own projects in BricsCAD Ultimate, so you can see how well this software performs. Provide examples from your BIM or Mechanical workflows and we will open them in the software, show how both disciplines can be handled, explore the tools you use day to day and answer questions specific to the way your team works.

Do You Need BIM, Pro or Ultimate?

BricsCAD BIM is designed for practices focused on building design, combining the 2D drafting and 3D modelling tools of BricsCAD Pro with BIM classification, IFC exchange and model generated documentation. If your work also extends into mechanical design or manufacturing, BricsCAD Ultimate brings the BIM and Mechanical toolsets together in one package, giving you a broader set of tools for projects that move beyond building design.

What Our Customers Say

"We recently purchased multiple BricsCAD licences through NORI CAD. The whole process, from initial engagement through to purchasing and use of the system, has been very smooth and well informed. Definitely the right decision to use NORI CAD for all our CAD services and support."

Nathan Lyttle, XAIS-PTS

Buying From NORI CAD

Choosing BricsCAD Ultimate comes down to whether your work genuinely needs both BIM and Mechanical. We want to understand how your team actually works and recommend a single edition if that is the better fit. If Ultimate does make sense, you will know why before you buy it.

By purchasing through NORI CAD, you will also be a dedicated account manager who understands your setup and is available to help with licensing, support and future requirements from our UK team.

Frequently Asked Questions

A subscription is £1,060 per year, three years is £2,856, and a perpetual licence is £2,376 as a one-off. All prices exclude VAT. Perpetual includes maintenance for the first year, after which you renew maintenance to keep receiving updates.

Yes. Mechanical and BIM bought separately come to £1,822 a year, against £1,060 for Ultimate. That is £762 a year saved, or 42%. On perpetual licences it is £4,092 against £2,376, which works out at the same 42%.

Everything in all four editions. The 2D toolset from Lite, 3D modelling, parametric modelling, rendering and point clouds from Pro, sheet metal and assemblies from Mechanical, and IFC and BIM classification from BIM. Nothing is held back and there is nothing to add on later.

Only if your work genuinely spans two disciplines. If most of your week sits in one and you touch the other occasionally, buy that edition instead and save the difference. Tell us roughly how a normal month divides and we will give you a straight answer.

Yes. A perpetual licence is £2,376 as a one-off purchase and it is yours to keep. That is £480 less than three years of subscription, and it does not stop working at the end of them.

Yes, Ultimate is licensed per seat like every other edition. If you need several, or a network licence that floats across the office, call us and we will price it properly rather than multiplying the single-seat figure.

Yes. You pay the difference between the edition you have and Ultimate. From Mechanical that is £178 a year, and from BIM it is £120. Speak to your account manager and they will arrange it.
