The availability of AEC software on the cloud increases its adoption as end-users can take advantage of round-the-clock access to their software, and the end-users are also not bound by location constraints. Autodesk Cloud is an example of cloud-based AEC software. Many AEC software vendors have also started offering mobile-based AEC applications.

The increasing adoption of smartphones for enterprise applications is one of the main reasons for the growth of mobile-based AEC applications. Several AEC software vendors are developing various useful applications for iOS and Android to allow users to access their services through smartphones.

According to the report, an increase in the demand for AEC solutions from the APAC region is one of the major drivers. The APAC region countries such as India and China are currently experiencing high growth potential. It is expected that approximately US$3 trillion will be invested in infrastructural development of the APAC region by 2015. This drives the demand for AEC software from this region.
