Is anyone using either of these two products? How intuitive are they to learn (for someone who designed a subdivision in Civil 3D with just a book and never got a day's training on AutoCAD)? How useful are they to a civil engineer? I've heard of one potential client who now prefers AutoCAD Map 3D to ESRI products, which makes sense given the PITA of getting a dwg or dgn into ArcMap. We have two NavisWorks users in my company and I'm wondering if acquiring the skill on my own (we have an enterprise licence agreement) will make me indispensable.
