Support took awhile to get back to me but for the cost difference in the software its kind of understandable. Once they returned my call everything was quite easy and support did a great job resolving the issue.

It works good!

Poor support from my last experience a couple of years ago. Luckily, the software started working properly again after installing a newer version.

Simple CAD software to compete with Autodesk.

I've had an occasion to have support help mostly with licensing, otherwise I've found my own solutions to problems the Draftsight was not able to provide a reasonable solution.

I was a newbie...

I've never contacted support. It says to skip this question if you have never contacted support, so I don't know why it's asking me to give an explanation and not letting me skip the question. And I'm having a hard time aiming for a word count of 50 or more so it'll let me move on.
