It should also be mentioned that M+M is an Autodesk reseller and offers its own services and software in addition to the classic Autodesk portfolio, whose margin is between 10% and 30% of the Autodesk software price.
M+M is one of Germany's largest CAD software resellers, but the competition is also very strong.
What Autodesk and M+M essentially have in common is that students and designers come into contact with Autodesk (AutoCAD, Inventor, Revit and Navisworks) at an early stage, thus steering them in the direction of Autodesk software rather than competitors such as Dassault, PTC, Siemens or others.
Autodesk is the market leader in mechanical design, infrastructure planning, architecture and game design as well as growing in film design.
Having worked with all competitors and service providers worldwide, I can also confirm that M+M has always been a reliable partner.

@topicswithhead In essence, the M+M software solutions are integration software that offer more possibilities in data processing, in cooperation work (BIM), in various industry-specific topics.
This is a challenge for Autodesk as they only offer standard solutions and less specific. In product development, customization is essential. While a standard solution is sufficient for large corporations, this is not enough in special machine construction or architecture. This often results in high consulting and modification costs for customers.
This is also a challenge for SAP in the ERP environment. Standard yes, customization very expensive. This is where small ERP companies have the edge.
Regarding the competition: there are various software solutions for different areas. The integration of machines in CAD is easiest via Autodesk. AutoCAD offers a reliable 2D solution. PTC and Siemens are often found in the classic automotive industry. The same goes for Dassault Catia for surface design and aircraft construction.
Microstation is very successful in demolition and in the pipeline environment alongside AVEVA. So there is different software depending on the industry and the challenge. M+M is simply an all-rounder.
About my CV: I worked with all common software solutions in the CAD environment from 2008 to 2020. I'll leave out the one year of AutoCAD in 2000. I was also a product manager in the ERP environment.
Until I went into nuclear engineering at the beginning of 2021 and found my calling.

@topicswithhead Well, they don't really compete because the business model is different. Autodesk is the big PaaS provider that serves the whole world and can scale perfectly. You can contact M+M if you need customized software that is precisely tailored to your company. As a result, M+M may earn more money per customer, but they also have work to do with each customer.

@Soprano I have never claimed that Autodesk competes with M+M. But Mum does compete with other Autodesk resellers such as Cideon or Contelos. Likewise outside the Autodesk portfolio with, for example, PDSVision, INNEO, Workstationpro, Microstation, Tricad MS and other resellers. The world is a big place when it comes to product development. There are over 400 different software and tools. I have worked in the industry myself for a competitor and later as a partner for all the resellers in the industry. I was also at the big events with a stand at Autodesk in Darmstadt, PTC in Stuttgart, Siemens in Seeheim etc. The competitive business is very strong.

@Soprano all right, thank you ☺️

Ahh okay. I had understood that the Autodesk resellers also have their own software that they market, but it is more specific. Interesting, thanks for the help. It's funny how you can misunderstand a company, but it's still a good company
