Overall Satisfaction with DraftSight
I've used DraftSight at previous employers to review .dwg drawings and create my own for plant layouts, machine design, and other manufacturing needs. It was a user-friendly tool that met all of my needs. So when I got to my current organization I recognized similar needs for software capable of performing these functions. I presented my case to the General Manager and he approved my purchase. I've since begun sharing its capabilities to other sites.
- Super friendly user interface and tutorials on how to get started
- Develop 2D plant layouts or machine drawings
- Economical option to bring into an Organization / Company Location the ability to develop .dwg files
- I don't have much to offer here because it has fit my needs and capabilities to develop plant layouts, review drawings, etc.
- Perhaps look at an add-on that allows for mechanical simulations
- Has allowed us to create a better visual representation of our project/plant visions through developing tangible drawings. This makes it easier for Board members to understand our proposals and helps instill project confidence.
- A great tool to review safety (egress; aisleways; etc)
