    Pros: Ease of use, availability of FREE training, and community assistance via youtube. The majority of schools teach using this software.

    Cons: Support could be improved with more knowledgeable staff.

    Overall: This software is easy to use, user-friendly and has so many youtube videos out there if you can find an issue they haven't covered they actually request you bring it to their attention so they can address it promptly.

    "After 30 years of putting up with this software now I’m done what a garbage software"

    Posted 2022-09-04

    Pros: After 30 years of putting up with this software as an All-Axis programmer now I’m done with this garbage software that always have problems. Why Mastercam puts out a software with so many issues that crashes constantly same as 30 years ago. Fire your engineers software programmers and bring real people on board.

    Cons: You can never rely on this software believe me I’ll be on it since the day open up their doors they were running on DOS more than 25 years ago but the problems are all still there. Why because they don’t give a damn about what they putting out half fast done stressing out the programmers. Believe me I can program any machine but Mastercam is getting worse and worse and worse every day. Here’s the problem, Mastercam instructors never been on a machine before.

    $23,000 pile of garbage.

    Overall: Don’t buy this software spend a little more money and get a real software because Mastercam don’t care about anybody and 2023 still crashes constantly just like 30 years ago and you lose files hours of programming because they don’t know or want to help anybody by putting a half fast revision out with lots of problems and when you call them ask a question they don’t know anything they never touched a machine before just bunch of parrots and not smart.
