Cons

“The personal biggest problem me is right-clicking on the mouse because it's not the same as AutoCAD, the problem if you used to work in AutoCad is hard to get used to BricsCAD.”

Mato T.

Surveyor

“If I had known that they treat customers this badly I would have never have purchased their product.”

“Depending on the software version, there are still a few bugs. They are not bugs that affect the functionality of the program, but tend to irritate the perfectionist.”
