About Vectorworks. Vectorworks first began under another name—Graphsoft—and was founded by Richard Diehl in 1985. Working on the new Mac, their first program was named MiniCAD. Due to the similarity to the company Graphisoft—which was also developing CAD on Macs—Diehl changed the name to Diehl Graphsoft. The company would undergo one final name change in the late 1990s with the move to Windows, when it became Vectorworks.

Newly christened Vectorworks was soon acquired by parent company Nemetschek of Germany in 2000. It was the first US-based subsidiary of Nemetschek, joining the company’s network of over 40 branches throughout Europe. Vectorworks has since boasted of creating one of the first CAD programs and the first cross-platform CAD application. While they started out predominantly targeting architects, Vectorworks soon moved towards more industry-focused products. The success of this is noted in the 650,000 or more designers currently relying on Vectorworks technology.

While Vectorworks might be a minority in the general CAD market, it is a pioneer in the world of BIM. In fact, it stands as the leading BIM application in the UK. Vectorworks is one of the only products that currently combines a BIM model with GIS and urban planning information. It targets a variety of industries including architecture, entertainment, lighting, rendering and landscape.

Though less well known than major players such as Autodesk or Dassault Systèmes, Vectorworks is undoubtedly a leading developer in the CAD and BIM sectors.
