Overall Satisfaction with DraftSight
We use Draftsight across the business for designing profiles' cutters and tooling as well as creating drawings of these for marketing. Draftsight allows us to save drawings as PDFs for our customers to approve, we can then use the drawings to program cutting paths on our grinding machines that make the cutters.
- Flexible hash and fill options for creating metal and wood effects
- Ease of use allows for drawings to be creating quickly
- Range of export options to more commonly used formats for drawings to be reviewed
- Draftsight could run better on lower performace machines, even on high performance machines there can be some lag now and again.
- There used to be a more basic subscription version which was perfect for our needs, now lowest subscription is more expensive. Bringing back the standard version would be great.
- Including hash pattern files would be very useful.
- 2D Drawings
- PDF Export
- Scale Drawings
- Draftsight has been very cost effective, it was free a few years ago then £79 a year, which it still is if you have the standard version. Now the minium level is Profession edition at £159+ VAT per year. Which is still very good value for money, just more that what we currently pay with the standard licences we have.
