DesignCAD Reviews
"I've used a couple of different apps for CAD and I am very surprised at how much DesignCAD 3D can do and still be easy to use as it is."
Roger B.
"I have used DesignCAD since version 12 for furniture design. Mostly 2D. Each version upgrade has offered greater value."
Brian F.
"Have been using DesignCAD since the DOS versions and it just keeps getting better and more powerful every year. Dollar-for-dollar, it's the best CAD software available anywhere."
Neal S.
"Still a great program - Been using it since version 12. Easy to learn if you are just learning CAD drawing. I have been using DesignCAD to draw technical drawings for survey mapping in archaeology because it has but has lots of easy to use features. "
Tom A.
I am just starting out with using a CAD program. So far, I am learning the functions and little tricks that are needed to be efficient. I believe this to be a good product for those who want to draw fairly technical documents, and it is very powerful.
John G.
"I have used DesignCAD for close to twenty years, and it is a simple, dependable software. Over the years it has added features and improved its overall performance noticeably in the area of exporting/importing other drawing formats."
John C.
"Simple and stable. Have been using for years. Consider it my second language after English. Does everything I need for 2D drafting, never locks up or crashes, even in Windows. "
Lowell S.
"Our company designs and fabricates furniture and cabinetry for both private and commercial customers. We have the original version off DesignCAD, liked revision capability, so added the newer version."
Don S.
"The program is very useful for almost anyone. I have been using it for a few years now and am just now trying to learn the 3-D portion. Excellent tool."
Mike E.
"Great product for the price! Bought it for home after using it at work for many years. Well done creators. Great, easy to use product. No bull sh#@ and very fast to get small to medium shop drawings out. Allows me to show normal people the ideas in my head quickly and easily. Love it!!"
Mick L.
"I have used DesignCAD for civil engineering designs (buildings, subdivisions, roadways) since first purchasing a DOS version in the early 1990's. DesignCAD is fantastic. I have never come across a drafting project that I could not complete easily in DesignCAD."
Dennis M.
"I am very impressed with the software. I am not a drawing professional but I easily imported AutoCAD files and made the modifications and prints I needed. It seems that all the tools needed by a professional are available. Definitely a 5 Star, I strongly recommend this software."
Roger L.
"This is an inexpensive 2d drafting program. We bought it when we had a hardware issue that was keeping us from getting VisionRez working or the license transferred, but a small job was due. We sorta freaked and bought this, hoping we could use it to draw & get the pool house job out on time while I got the other problems taken care of."
Gardencat.
"The actual software is not that hard if you have autocad or CAD experience, though the interface is different, so even WITH a strong CAD background, expect a learning curve. It would just take time. . They do offer training but that costs more than the software, and looked to take a bigger chunk of time than we wanted to spend."
Gardencat.
"Great for begginers."
Dale Gibb.
"For the money, a very inclusive package, really can't see anything you couldn't create with this."
Chipp s. .
"I haven't figured out how to use it yet, but it's a nice item if you know cad"
Chuck .
"Pretty good basic CAD program. Originally purchased this because a customer sent me a file that they had created with this program. It must have been a much earlier version since I could not open the files. I am still glad that I bought it since I do need to be able to draw and print basic prints."
R.E
"it is a good drawing program if you have experience with AutoCAD. Taking me awhile to get use to it. I have forgotten most of the things on AutoCAD."
KLR handyman
"Great product and a great vendor"
