What is Autodesk?

Can you give a description of Autodesk, its features and functionality? I had a brief look and it loks like a CAD system. From what little (Tiny I mean) understanding of this software type I'm pretty sure there are tonnes of the stuff.

I googled AutoDesk alternative and found this -

Hope it helps

with it

with it you can create 3d mechanical design software. kinda like blender but you can make gears and pips and mechanical type of stuf.

sorry im not good at explaining stuf

i looked at CADEMIA but you can only make 2d stuf

thanks for your help
