MacDraft Professional vs ArcSite: Which is a better fit?

I do design build work and MacDraft has been there all the way. I've been very happy and the application gets better and better as now it is compatible with many forms of CAD.

Specially if it stops us from making even one mistake. I am giving my older son the PC version as a present so he doesn’t come borrow my Mac all the time.

This works fine and great for me, my customers love the details drawings they receive. I'm now so familiar with the software that I designed my own house which also worked great.

Very Disappointed - Paid for the upgrade from 6.2.1 TWICE and neither time received the download.

The help line and over the phone knowledge of the tech support is second to none. These guys are so helpful and nothing is a issue to them, the best software I have used for years.

Still trying to learn the software and having trouble connecting lines.

Great software, one of the best after sales service I have ever come across, very friendly support staff, couldn't ask for anymore help on issues, and they are usually, user error.

This version has a few bugs that are annoying but can be worked around.

The customer support team is fantastic, and was eager to know about my experience with the tool and what they could do to improve.

The issue that bothered me the most is its mandatory bidding features. We have no need for them.

We have been using ArcSite for years now, and I have the utmost respect for the company, they truly want to help the customer/user be successful.

Lack of features for more complicated drawings.

It's a good product, very simple for take measures on worksite, perfect for begin layout... or transfer to Cad application... there is a lot advantage directly inside it.

No desktop version, limited export options, inconsistent and limited dimensioning, and not easy to get area measurements. Higher levels are a bit expensive.

ArcSite has given us the ability to create beautiful, quality, custom bids for the work we do on our customers home that is unparalleled.

There are times when very detailed drawings can be a pain. Sometimes it is difficult to draw or drag and place lines that are close together.
