I handle Bluebeam licensing for many clients, some of them architecture firms, and none of them have ever bothered with Bluebeam Revu CAD. Though I have to say, I think the CAD & Extreme editions are completely unnecessary for virtually everyone, even architects. The older versions of Revu Standard like 7-8 were a bit funky, had compatibility issues and were missing a lot of functionality compared to Acrobat Pro but since Revu 11.7 (current version is Revu 2015 which is basically v13), it has been a bonafida Acrobat Pro-killer and even has functionality that is now better than Adobe's, like the 3D PDFs and the Comparison & Overlay tool. For those who don't know, Bluebeam Revu is essentially Adobe Acrobat Pro at sane prices.ĥ seats for Revu Standard at $1,400 works out to $280 per licence which is pretty much the vendor average currently, plus you get the subscription contract which automatically upgrades your existing licence to the latest version that you simply download from Bluebeam's website, activate with your new key and away you go on the latest version.
