This was our second largest category having received 32% of the responses. These are the packages that Hobbyists and “Prosumers” (low-end business + high-end hobbyist) thrive on because their price points are relatively low. Like the High-End, more insights are possible by looking at some of the other reports. The forces at work here are not consolidation but changing positions based on overall momentum. In 2014 the Top 3 players in this segment had 78% of the segment. That’s not that big a share change for them. Mecsoft’s family of products fell from #2 place (22%) to #4 place 20%.Vectric moved from #4 (17% share) to #3 with 24% share.SprutCAM fell from #1 to #2 place going from 38% share to 27%.

BobCAD/CAM moved up from #3 (18% share) to #1 place with 27% share.

There was quite a lot of upheaval in market shares among the Tier-Priced packages too: 26% of our respondents were using Tier-Priced CAM packages. This year, its share places it in third place, and we think that is largely due to the incredible success of Fusion 360 at the Low End. When we did our 2014 survey, the Tier-Priced category was the second most popular segment, after the High-End. As such they straddle multiple markets from low-end to high-end. The Tier-Priced category consists of products that are sold in modular fashion so you can build a CAM package at virtually any price point depending on how much functionality you need.

To understand the market share gains and losses better, you’ll want to drill down on some of the other survey analysis such as Share of Mind, Top Features, Top Frustrations, Conversions Rates and Product Strengths and Weaknesses. Notable share losers were GibbsCAM, SurfCAM, Catia, and Pro/E. Below the Top 5, Edgecam, Alphacam, Esprit, TopSolid, and Hypermill all made good gains in market share.Apparently the merger with Autodesk has been a good idea for the product. Powermill and Solidcam are tied for the #4 and #5 places, but Solidcam has lost a little overall share while Powermill is coming on pretty strongly.OneCNC is hanging in at the same #3 position and even picked up some share, moving from 6% to 8%.These are the full-featured versions that integrate with Solidworks and Inventor. Note that this is not the inexpensive Fusion 360 version. HSMWorks has made stunning gains-moving from #5 and 5% share to #2 and 17% share.NX fell from #2 to #6 and is no longer in the Top 5.Mastercam remains the #1 player and even gained share-moving from 22% to 27%.Here are the highlights of 2015 relative to the 2014 results: The market is indeed gradually consolidating. There are still a great many players, but the Top 5 account for 5% of the market while in 2014 the Top 5 were 51%. There had been predictions of consolidation, but consolidation was not apparent in the data.

Low-End: Thees are inexpensive packages most commonly used by Hobbyists, but as we’ll see, they’re starting to come up-market to the Professional World.

Tiered: Modular packages available in a range of configurations that span from the Low-End to the High-End.

High-End: More expensive packages with more functionality.

We’ll be doing one every year from now on–the market is just changing too quickly to look only every other year. We’ve just completed our 4th CAM Software Market Share Survey, and the results are fascinating.
