Door and Window Builder vs. ArchiGlazing

Laura Yanoviak
Advocate
Can anyone recommend one over the other?

It appears that ArchiGlazing is a good tool for one doing a lot of custom curtainwall/storefront framing, and Door and Window Builder would satisfy the need for just about any punched opening imaginable. If the curtainwall/storefront objects are not significantly improved with AC10, we will have no choice but to purchase one of these add-ons...

One major difference is that ArchiGlazing is an add-on and must be purchased and installed on each machine with its own auth codes while D&WB is an object kit that you only need to buy once for the office and place in a common library.

It's not related to the features of either one, but can seriously affect the cost if you have a lot of users.

Not sure about ArchiGlazing, but D&WB has some killer scheduling capabilities!
