Datacad has been my go to software for construction documents for over 24 years.
What do you like best?
It's ease of use and customization have made it really user friendly. The programming team always is willing to help and listen to customer feedback and suggestions.
What do you dislike?
The rendering and 3D modeling aspects of the program have lagged behind industry & client expectations.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for software to produce quality construction documents, it's hard to beat Datacad's value. If looking for 3D rendering and modeling I would look somewhere else.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I focus on custom and higher end residential home design and Datacad has helped me create clear and consise documents to get the plans approved by local building jurisdictions.
