Pros
“Compared with other "giants" of cost estimation, it represents an option with a high "benefit-cost" ratio. Excellent ease of use and installation in light equipment such as an ipod, for example.”

Cons
“Its main limitation to my way of seeing is that it is not based on the cloud or allows the export of the product made to another device, or failing that, send it via email.”
