What are some of the more common professional architecture software programs?

I was talking to an architect a few months ago and she was telling me about a software program that virtually all professional architects are using these days. Now I can't remember the name of it. Anybody know? Thanks.

1. Auto Cad?
2. Nemetschek North America - VectorWorks VectorWorks, Fundamentals, Architect, Landmark, Spotlight, and Designer are affordably priced, cross-platform CAD software programs for architecture, ... http://www.nemetschek.net/ This is assumed to be the best architectural software - used by top architects. For other software for architecture check following web site : http://architosh.com VectorWorks is used by really top arhitects although AutoCAD is used more because there are obviously more average ones than top ones but Nemetschek prouds itself that real top ones whose works are showed in Arhitectural Digest and other arhitectural publications use their VectorWorks. And yes AutoCAD is the most widely used arhitectural software.
