"As a user of CAD programs, I have found Softplan to be the most simple and complete software program available for residential drafting and design.  For every 10 key strokes or mouse clicks in other programs, Softplan takes only one.  This program has increased our productivity, and decreased wasted time by eliminating mistakes involving dimensions, roof designs, and elevation views.  One main plus to this program is the simplicity to learn."
Keith Dibert, KAD Designs, Inc, Ocala, Florida
