ProgeCAD 2018 is a professional 2D/3D DWG/DXF-native CAD with perpetual licensing (One time purchase, no annual fee, upgrades are optionals). It natively reads and writes AutoCAD DWG files with no need for conversion. It's a low-cost replacement for AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT.

• Autocad

Anybody familiar with AutoCAD® can immediately use progeCAD without any training.The new 2018 release is based on a new CAD core engine and is compatible with the Windows operating system from Vista to Windows 10. The 2018 version includes a series of new tools and features: Advanced Render, Shape (ESRI) Import, DWG 2017 Support, the Superhatch Command, Perspective image correction, the Text In-place editor, Objects fade control and others. The Artisan Render module has been incorporated to offer a stunning visualisation of design projects with by far greater photorealistic render effects. Artisan makes a high quality render possible even to non-expert Users.

Perspective Image Correction is a new tool adjusting perspective distortions of images directly in progeCAD. ESRI-SHAPE Import allows the User to import SHAPE files with geometry and its attributes into DWG drawings. Specific commands allow geometry insertion, colours and layers management, data dynamic control. The SUPERHATCH command allows to create amazing hatches out of images, blocks, external references and wipeout objects. It allows the User to achieve realistic effects and simulate the use of materials, for example, roof tiling, furniture finish or mechanical components materials, even in a 2D drawing. The progeCAD package offers standard CAD features along with numerous add-ons such as the PDF to DWG Converter, the EasyArch 3D Plug-in, Block Libraries, the Raster-to-Vector module. The program also provides a series of exclusive tools improving user productivity on project development: 3D PDF Export, 3D ACIS Solid Modeling, the iCADLib module, free access to the TraceParts and Cadenas portals.

The progeCAD Professional package puts at disposal of its Users a set of customization tools, supporting the following programming languages and interfaces: AutoLisp, Visual Lisp, SDS (C similar to AutoCAD ADS), IRX (C similar to AutoCAD ARX), VBA, DIESEL, ActiveX Automation and Microsoft.NET.

Commenti: I prescribe it in the event that you require a decent CAD programming and can't manage the cost of auto miscreant, I genuinely trust that it can take care of business, it has a few issues as generally programming.We utilized cad program while having issues with auto cad (generally because of expenses) and it worked ponders, it such a great amount of less expensive than it and it works extremely comparable.Vantaggi: As an auto cad visit client I can state that utilizing cad program is much the same as utilizing auto-cad, it is a great substitute at a moderate cost. It has extraordinary working highlights a decent interface that make working with it extremely comfortable. For somebody on the spending it is a stunning CAD choice.Inconvenienti: It has some similarity issues; a portion of our customers who work with auto cad report that they nearly need to change over the attracting for them to utilize it. Likewise when working with medium to huge illustrations it can crash. It has indistinguishable issue from auto cad that it very well may overpower when learning it, there are such a large number of directions that accomplishing something as basic as a hover requires for 3 or 4 stages.We utilized cad program while having issues with auto cad (generally because of expenses) and it worked ponders, it such a great amount of less expensive than it and it works extremely comparable.

It has amazing compatibility with DWG files, which make opening autocad projects on progecad (or visceversa) a really streamlined process.Inconvenienti: I haven´t found any type of issues with this software, it works great as a replacement for autocad and it is way cheaper. Commenti: Best software for fresh architects, no need to buy expensive software because it's a great alternative to the autoCAD and other expensive softwareVantaggi: I think it is a good software, After using it over 2 years now i can say that it's a good software for fresh architects who cannot buy some expensive software.

Autocad

It is almost like autoCAD and it also support all DWG files.Inconvenienti: Everything is good about this software except few things like it tends to freeze sometime other than that it's a good software. Commenti: It is a great alternative to autocad, it looks and works almost the same way. It can be buggy but it's much cheaper than autocad, so for someone on a budget is a great option,Vantaggi: For someone looking for an alternative to autocad, progecad is a great option, since they work almost the same, so if you invested the time required to master autocad it shouldn't be an issue working with progecad, which overall is an excellent 2D and 3D drawing tool.Inconvenienti: It can be really buggy, my computer tends to freeze a lot more than when working with autocad (which is a really power demanding software). It has the same issue as autocad, it can be overwhelming at first. Commenti: We highly recommend ProgeCAD for any architectural or design office and especially for smaller offices where low software overhead contributes tocompetitiveness and where ease of use and productivity become so personal to the users.Vantaggi: ProgeCAD (architectural) has the features, interface and document portability of similar CAD software yet the cost is much more affordable; especially for smallentrepreneurs. We have used ProgeCAD for five years with clients who use AutoCAD and similar software and have experienced only minute compatibility issues. Our ability to keep our software current and to compete in the marketplace is enhanced by the attractive pricing of ProgeCAD.

Support by the software developer, resellers and an enthusiastic user community is of very good quality and highly appreciated especially when one gets into customization.Inconvenienti: ProgeCAD is less well-known (although that is changing) and is often unfairly disparaged by those who have invested in vastly more expensive CAD software.
