"progeCAD Professional is an AutoCAD-like application.  It can handle DWG files easily and that it offers commands, interfaces, 'feel,' and functionality that should make it readily accessible to seasoned AutoCAD users," says Anthony J. Lockwood, editor at large for Desktop Engineering.  "It's a low-cost, general-purpose 2D and 3D design CAD system appropriate for concept sketches to MCAD layout." 

"The pitch that progeCAD USA uses is that progeCAD is an AutoCAD-like application at far less cost," explains Lockwood.  "That's true as far as I can tell.  But I actually think that progeCAD is a productivity enhancement system." 

"Its cost enables you to spread AutoCAD-like functionality around your company relatively inexpensively," concludes Lockwood.  "The hour here, the day there it can save you could return your investment in no time flat and that effect can be the one little thing that gets you to market more quickly." 

ProgeCAD has practically no learning curve for AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT users and a company can provide progeCAD to every desktop in an entire country for less than the cost of 14 AutoCAD Licenses.  Those wishing to compare progeCAD to AutoCAD and/or learn progeCAD can do so with the "Inside progeCAD" tutorial eBook offered free of charge to all interested in utilizing progeCAD for their design's. 

Those using progeCAD are finding that it easily replace's the higher cost AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT while still allowing them to use software that they know and quickly learn to love.  "I spent a good part of this week working with the program and I think it's great.  I'm looking forward to having the next design project come in so I can use it some more.", Charise Jamison, Kizyma Electric.
