AllyCAD Reviews

Review by Michael E. Callahan aka Dr. File Finder

AllyCAD, by Knowledge Base is a full-featured, CAD (Computer Assisted Drawing) program for the PC.

Everyone knows that I'm "graphically challenged", but even I found the program to be intuitive. In testing it out it was easy-to-use, perfect for both new and experienced users.

AlleyCAD can be used for all kinds of technical drawings in various areas like mechanical, architectural, electrical, and so on. I was impressed by the fact that the program offers toolkits that are specialized for certain disciplines. For example, there's a toolkit for surveys, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, architectural, and more. The toolkits make it easy to do common operations. Slick. I really like the fact that the program is highly customizable. You can personalize menus, toolbars, and more, to be exactly how you want them to be.

With AlleyCAD you can work with multiple drawings at one time and can even cut and paste between them. That's great for when you have multiple projects going at once.

Speaking of multiple projects, AlleyCAD is also fully compatible with other drawing programs like AutoCAD, Caddie, and Arcview. It can also deal with a range of graphics file formats including TIFF, JPG, and BMP. So, if you need a professional CAD program for your work, this may be exactly what you've been looking for. Give it a try, I recommend it.
