españolWhat is progeCAD?
progeCAD is an AutoCAD® compatible 2D/3D CAD application that works with AutoCAD® DWG files from v. 2.5 to v. 2025 and imports Autodesk Revit®, IFC and SolidWorks files! The best solution for AEC, MCAD and all generic CAD usages. Supports Dynamic Blocks Creation/Editing (Advanced Blocks)
progeCAD sells with perpetual licensing and offers more CAD functions than AutoCAD® LT at a fraction of the cost of AutoCAD®, ArchiCAD® , ZwCAD® , GstarCAD®, BricsCAD®or Microstation®
They work with progeCAD:
