### "ease of use"

November 12, 2018

4.0

Pros

I have used other CAD programs doing my 35 year career. No other program has come close to providing the power, function and ease of use.

Cons

NO SPELL CHECK, kEYCREATOR is the only program that I know of that doesn't have spell check, engineers are notorious for being bad spellers.

Previous the crisis it was used by ingeneering companies. For instance, a bridge is not more than a huge mechanical part.

The possibility of using in a classic mode

I´m positive that its price is relative to its value, but the customers think its expensive
