NBS Nationaly BIM Survey

The NBS Nationaly BIM Survey is running right now.
I think it useful if they get lots of feedback from the ArchiCAD community as well.
I assume this is for people in the US to fill out (it takes about 10 minutes to fill out):

It looks like this is a UK survey:

If I read it correctly it does not matter if you are UK based. You can specify your country.

Also, AutoCAD LT 20%.
So AutoCAD is 42%, which in my opinion is a lot of potential crossgrades or upgrades from CAD to BIM.

I had the impression that by splitting AutoCAD into LT and regular, Revit could enter first. But 42% is still a lot more than the others...

While this is obviously an interesting fragment from the report, I was more interested in BIM adoption and the evolution (and be frustrated about how low our own country - Belgium - would score).

There is a nice overview graphic here:

Also the graph is some what misleading. If you divide Revit's market share equally by Architecture, MEP and Structure you get 9% share which is less than AC's and the same happens with Autocad. IMO they should have organized by discipline which could give a better understanding of marketshare.

Specially when they presented the information at UK's BIMcrew last week.
