Hi,
I would like to know where one can buy original engineering softwares and antivirus in kl or bangi. I am looking forward to buy the latest version of Autocad or SOLIDWORKS or Catia. Are the original ones expensive? I am an engineer not a student. I am looking to buy one with a license term of 3 years.

Can someone pls tell me too why in Lazada and shopee these softwares cost just between rm15 to rm30 each... They are pirated right? Is it reliable to buy and use them?

buy directly from online. autocad with monthly/annual subscription.

I'm not an engineer.

But to answer you, buy online lah from official web/store

Go outside buy, kena tipu with cracked software mana tau

the one you find on shopee are usually not legit ones.
better straight free piracy instead of paying for pirated software.

the original license are expensive, you can find pricing at their website. https://asean.autodesk.com/products/autocad...ab=subscription

if you want a cheaper version of autocad, you can use autocad LT which is around rm1600 something a year but typically they give discount for longer term. call them lah to nego lower price.

The super cheap ones are pirated
Don't need an antivirus as long as you play it safe
Ad blocker + Windows Defender + Common Sense + Skepticism is all you need
If you must, Malwarebytes

Autodesk: https://www.autodesk.com/resellers/locate-a...seller/malaysia
Solidworks: https://www.solidworks.com/how-to-buy/find-...works-reseller/
Couldnt find one for Catia

And yes, the original software can and will be expensive
it is RM20k for Autocad 3 years from their offical site

I bought CATIA last time, license renewal cost me RM15k/year
