What is Buzzsaw?
Buzzsaw was Autodesk’s early document management service for design and construction: online drawing distribution and project filing before the term CDE existed.
Autodesk has retired the service, and its role is now covered by Autodesk Construction Cloud and the wider CDE market. Buzzsaw survives mainly in older CVs and project histories, where it signals long document control experience.
