Switched From: MicroStation
Reasons for Switching to HydroSym: There are a lot of benefits, efficient, low costs, user friendly and the integration possibility with Hydroman and SolidEdge

"By far the best schematic software avaliable."

Overall: There are barely any snags and it does work very well. Support is excellent and

Pros: The library, connection lines and the symbol edit function.

Cons: Printing to pdf, and rolling the drawing header out in the organisation. And removing/hiding port names. It a litte tricky drawing in old dwg-files after converting them to hdf. - It does work good enough.

Reasons for Choosing HydroSym: I had a trial period of both programs and HydroSym was just much better. Better component catalogue, better interface, easier to use, and much much faster from sketch to final drawing.
Reasons for Switching to HydroSym: It was too fiddely with the symbols, connections, weights and so on. Too much time was spent setting up the drawings instead of working on the drawings.

"Very impressed"

Overall: I've been REALLY impressed with tthe customer service. They answered really fast. Also, if the component you are looking for isn't in the library, the will create it for you in couple days. Wow!

Pros: We really love the symbols and components libraries. They are very complete!

Cons: The speed the zoom in / zoom out function works is faster than our CAD drawing, so we need to get used to it.
