Autodesk is probably on par if not worse than Google when it comes to branding.
- beambot 6y agoDoes Autodesk select product names that have close associations with major porn sites? Google has (i.e. YouTube Red).
- refulgentis 6y ago"YouTube Red is closely associated with a porn site, redtube" is quite a take!
- polynomial 6y agoIt's a bush league blunder I don't think any really experienced branding team would make.
- JadeNB 6y agoLet's just enjoy the beauty of "associating with a porn site is a bush league blunder."
- dmart 6y agoI’m not sure it’s that crazy of a take. Those are, by far, the two most recognizable websites in the world with “tube” in the name. Naming a product in a way that calls to mind the other (for no real reason - the “Red” in YouTube Red doesn’t mean anything) is an obvious branding error.
- Jasper_ 6y agoIt's the reason they renamed it YouTube Premium after a year or two.

- kls 6y agoYou could double down on purchasing existing companies and just leaving them hanging out there. Softimage comes to mind, it was honestly the best of breed in it's space and they acquired it along with wavefront/Maya and just let Softimage languash while they milked it for licencing.
