	Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros We have resolved the disconnect between estimation and production. Production no longer needs to rely on hand drawings, and now know exactly where to repair. The user interface and functionality is exceptional in depicting an accurate floor plan. The fact that the in field constructed drawing can seamlessly export to CAD is one of the greatest perks. This software has a lot of things I need, I can find what I need in it, I like it very much, very good. This is an excellent application, mainly used to draw field diagrams. With it, we can quickly create building drawings for our building inspection reports. Engineering drawings can be easily imported and calibrated as long as an existing PDF is available. Easy to measure and enter simple planning information. I used it instead of a Landscape Architecture on many sites when laying out projects. It has become preferred, especially for larger projects, as I can upload all layout drawings and construction details for quick reference on the job site. It is also easy to create quick workshop drawings on site and easily create PDFs with dimensions. Cons I hope there are more items in my career list. I hope there are more cabinet options, but I also hope not to load everything into my own page. When you upload a file, it will be nice when it is returned as a file instead of a separate file for each page. I have found that the blocks must be scaled constantly and do not populate at the scale they were drawn in. This limits the functionality some. However, this is a minor inconvenience and ultimately would just be an added luxury given the softwares current capabilities. But there are a lot of shortcomings. Sometimes I get stuck and have the experience of quitting. This experience makes me very unhappy. Full functionality usually doesn't work-if there is a small broken line in the shape, the color will fill everything around it. Can you make a button in the shape of a stamp? Unable to write DWG files directly to ArcSite. The transition from design to ArcSite might be easier if the application could create usable files directly from DWG. In addition, occasional crashes occur when using custom symbols created in the application.
