I was searching for a CAD programme and luckily, I came across CAD4Africa. This programme I found very easy to work with and became quite easily familiar with it. It is a huge advantage to have a free trail for 30 days. During this period, I learned a lot about the programme and within one week use, I decided to purchase the programme, so user friendly it is. It is recommended that design engineers seriously consider purchasing this programme, rather than rent.

I was asked by my MD to get a 2d CAD program to do certain work for my employer, I looked at AutoCAD as I used to use AutoCAD 14 years ago, when Matija contacted me He said I can try ProgeCAD for 30 days free of charge to see if I am happy with it, as it is basically the same as AutoCAD. It is easy to learn due to the similarities of AutoCAD and after n few days I was up and running and Purchased ProgeCAD with n lifetime license. No need to renew the license every year or subscribe for a subscription. Matija from CAD4Africa was helpful all the way and if there is something he didn’t know he found out immediately and gave me a solution. Thanx CAD4Africa

They helped us with the implementation of SprutCAM.
They also provide excellent post-implementation software support and are readily available for consultation.
They were quick to provide quotes and offered discounts.
If we have any questions about the operation of the software, they will either tell us or, if they are unable to help, they will faithfully relay the information to us with the manufacturer.
I would use them again.
Optimized Performance: 2x faster drawing updates, 10x faster 3D modeling, quicker hatching, and lag-free panning.
Quick Calculator: Built-in calculator for smarter property control.
