    Great Value CAD program

    Date: May 20 2023

    Summary: Very useful as a workable CAD program at a very reasonable price. I will be using it for many more years.

    Positive: For many years I have used professional CAD program which I have also used to prepare my personal drawings (Car Wiring / model railway / house extension) With retirement, I needed a decent CAD program that I could purchase outright instead of paying an annual (expensive) licence fee.

    ActCAD has met all my requirements & enabled me to continue updating my car wiring diagrams for Triumph TR7's which are distributed world wide under an open source licence.

    Negative: The various tool bars and options are not always obvious and some homework is needed to master the program.

    ActCAD Prime Review

    Date: Sep 12 2022

    Summary: Very satisfied with application. Will require additional time in order to determine an overall opinion.

    Positive: Stability and clarity of graphics. Some other companies' version of this software is quite blurred. UI is satisfactory as is features.

    Negative: Help file could be a bit more detailed.
    Haven't really had adequate time to discover many negatives.

    ActCAD for Auto CADs!

    Date: Nov 15 2021

    Summary: We have been using ActCAD for the longest time and it's very convenient to use. Our team is used to this tool and can execute drawing perfectly or with just minimal error but not impacting the overall project. The only downside that I can see is that you will not be able to open the drawing that you created with the updated version to the old version.

    Positive: It has the option to print in all sizes of paper. We can customize objects, unlike the other software that has only standard features. It has an impressive display and a range of options for customization.

    Negative: It can be a bit challenging to use especially for beginners and drawing sometimes lag or crashes especially when you continue using it for a very long period of time without breaks. and there are no 3D models importing.

    Colour reflected in Actcad are not that fresh, applicable I mean to say fascinating.

    Edited: Oct 28 2021

    Summary: I am not that familiar with this as for long I was using Autocad.
    Of course, basically, I am a checker hence not that used to cad.
    The maximum persons should use this as this is cheaper, quite good & equivalent to Auto-cad.

    Positive: Every time tips you get while you start are good enough to develop.
    All options you get very easily. Basically, this is good software for cad designers.

    Negative: I am not that conversant to comment for this. I have worked on the Drafting board & worked as checker for the last 40 years.
