Blender also isn’t really a CAD software. There are other free CAD programs, like open scad and FreeCAD (is that the name) but I’ve heard mixed opinions on whether they’re really up to the task of replacing Autodesk.
Neither is Maya, the listed Autodesk product which Blender directly (and somewhat successfully) competes against.
FreeCAD covers a lot of ground, but is most comparable to Inventor from the Autodesk suite. I still think Inventor wins out but FreeCAD has made leaps and bounds recently.

Autodesk is more than CAD, like Adobe is more than Photoshop
