ShareCAD review
ShareCAD combines browser viewing with project organization and controlled file sharing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
ShareCAD is a cloud platform for storing, viewing, and sharing CAD and BIM files through web, iOS, and Android access. It is aimed at architecture, engineering, construction, manufacturing, and related technical teams that need recipients to review files without installing CAD software or creating an account. Browser viewing covers CAD, BIM, 2D, 3D, and document formats, including DWG and DXF, with proprietary-format viewing handled through Autodesk conversion.
Sharing controls are the product’s clearest strength. Teams can organize files into projects and folders, share files or folders with expiration dates and optional passwords, and create view-only links that restrict downloads. Request Files links provide a way to collect uploads, while user-level permissions and tenant-based project separation support controlled access across projects or organizations. Viewer tools include measurements, section views, and layer or level toggles. Autodesk Platform Services is the listed integration, making the product a focused fit for teams working with Autodesk-related conversion workflows rather than a broad collaboration suite.
The Standard plan costs $19.99 USD per month and includes browser-based CAD and BIM viewing, secure file sharing, project workspaces, cloud storage, file requests, and view-only sharing. Team costs $49 USD per month and adds 3 TB of cloud storage and priority email support. Enterprise adds unlimited users, Single Sign-On, dedicated onboarding, custom agreements and NDAs, priority support, and volume pricing. ShareCAD suits teams prioritizing controlled browser access and file exchange; teams seeking a free subscription, or DWG viewing without a subscription, should look elsewhere.
