In 1993 Roan R. Woody & Houston CAD of Spring, Texas sponsored a CAD program contest called Top Gun Cad Shoot Out. The contest rules were simple. Each would get the same simple floor plan and was to complete it with the least amount of keystrokes. Since this contest was looking to find the best overall cad program it seemed only logical that the best cad program could do the job with the least amount of keystrokes. Time was not a factor because being a fast typist does not reflect on the cad programs ease of use. Each mouse click counted as a keystroke. The shift, Alt and Ctrl keys when combined with another key were counted as one. There was specific symbols that were allowed. The winning stakes were $250.00 and their Cad programs reputation. DataCAD won with a total of 620 keystrokes. Cadvance came in second with 845 keystrokes. AutoCAD finished next to last with 1180 keystrokes. Not only did the winner use the least amount of keystrokes but the second and third place winners used DataCAD on their computers also. Time is money, so those drafting firms that use DataCAD on their computers can save you money.
Combined, our team has been using DataCAD for over 35 years and have mastered it well. DataCADs 2d, 2 1/2d and 3d drawings can be done with just a point and click. This makes the drawing process fast and smooth. All the dimensions that are on your drawings are 100% accurate to scale. So, when using DataCAD to design your home, It takes less time which saves you money. DataCAD capabilities out surpass other major CAD programs in both ease of use and speed. DataCAD is also able to use multiple plot scales on the same sheet, which is a major plus in the architectural field. You will not see the note "not to scale" on any of our plans, sections, elevations or details. Everything is drawn to scale and is clearly noted on each sheet. We have tried other CAD programs like Auto, Versa, Home, others and found that they either lacked ease of use or could not print everything to exact scale. Our opinion, DataCAD is the fastest and most accurate CAD program available on the market today. We use DataCAD, which is fast and accurate, which in turn saves you money.
Nice explaniation to theirs clients, Datacad rocks!!!!
I agree in all the points...
well not to mention datacad its no older to 20 years
