People bring ArchiCAD in for architectural design with bim capabilities, real-time team collaboration via bimcloud, automated documentation generation from design changes, mixed windows and macos team environments. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to ArchiCAD are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
Before you pay for ArchiCAD
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: not published on the record we hold. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare ArchiCAD against the tools that do have one before committing.
ArchiCAD runs on windows, macos, and is published by Graphisoft (Nemetschek) of Budapest, Hungary. The full record is on the ArchiCAD review.
