Verified reviews

Thirty years of people who still open it every day

★★★★★

“I have used a number of other CAD programs and I believe TurboCAD's DWG translation is much better than average. I have even seen situations where TurboCAD salvaged drawings unopenable in AutoCAD.”

Joseph M. · TurboCAD Platinum

★★★★★

“DesignCAD is simple and stable. Have been using it for years. Consider it my second language after English. Does everything I need for 2D drafting, never locks up or crashes.”

Lowell S. · DesignCAD 3D Max

★★★★★

“I began using TurboCAD in 2002 and all these years later I still get excited when I think about using TurboCAD on a daily basis.”

Don C. · TurboCAD Professional
