Becker Cad

BeckerCAD essentially installs itself--the whole process from the moment we inserted the CD-ROM to the time we were able to start designing took about seven minutes. On the surface, BeckerCAD seems a bit simple--professional users may be a bit put off by the less-than-sophisticated packaging and somewhat basic user's manual. However, we strongly recommend giving BeckerCAD a chance to prove its worth as a user-friendly, quick, and relatively easy-to-use drawing and design CAD application.

BeckerCAD packs quite a bit of punch for its low price. Aside from 2-D drawing and editing capabilities, the package also lets you create 3-D objects from 2-D drawings, as well as convert scanned images into CAD drawings. Measuring features allow you to accurately calculate surface areas, volumes, and distances. The application includes a fair amount of sample drawings, building plans, CAD symbols, and 3-D symbols. New users should get a lot out of the tutorial and help sections, as they are designed for people who are just getting started with CAD.

Perfect for home projects, school assignments, and such, BeckerCAD is a useful and effective application. --Gisele Toueg
