TurboCAD growth from zero to hero
Ever since the early days of computers, CAD programs proved to benefit drafting professionals tremendously. In the early days these applications ran on main frame and mini computers and were very expensive. AutoCAD opened a niche by being one of the very first CAD applications to run on a PC. It was low cost, comparatively speaking, providing a feature set that was on par or better than the traditional CAD applications of the day. Today we sit with a similar case. Over the years the price of AutoCAD crept up and up with relatively little incremental benefits in their annual upgrade cycle. TurboCAD, like AutoCAD in the twilight days of the CAD applications for mini-computers, provide a feature set that is not only on par with that of AutoCAD, but also provides a wealth of productivity enhancement features, making an ROI argument that cannot be ignored. TurboCAD which was created in South Africa and the richness of its feature set along with the value proposition made it what it is today – the leader in retail CAD in the US.
