The insight on DraftSight
Overall Satisfaction with DraftSight
I use DraftSight for architectural drafting/design as well as for estimating and project management. We are a small company, so I am the only user of the software. I use DraftSight for a lot of things. I do take-offs for lineal and sq ft. for material but use it as a working platform for value engineering designs and working with designers/architects. I've used it for so many graphic uses, design layouts for signage, CNC milling of accent pieces even layout tile patterns to maximize cuts. It's also my go-to for any CAD drafting for plans.
Pros
- Drafting
- Project management
- Material take-offs
Cons
- Trouble getting things to print to scale
- Issues importing graphics
- Unable to be move objects by grabbing.
- Cost is good for the use of the program
- Negative would be that there are some functions that are not the same as AutoCAD
- Has made things very efficient
