"It is a credo that drives us towards producing strong products... BricsCAD is a part of that, as we use the program for the 2D design of our factories’ assembly lines and equipment."
Shinya, Assistant Manager. Mazda, Japan
"I started searching for DWG-supporting systems... BricsCAD had the best support on handling the LISP files that we had. We had a big bunch of LISP applications to create our tools and so the decision went to BricsCAD."
Marcus, CAD/CAM Development. MAPAL, Germany
"With BricsCAD's powerful features and affordability, we estimate we've cut our construction design costs by 50%."
Juan, Director. Tecinci, Paraguay
"First of all, I can say that BricsCAD's software is an indisputable replacement for our existing 2D CAD software. We have not experienced any major problems with usability since its introduction."
Makoto, ICM Division. EBARA Corporation, Japan
