Looks better than the current software we are using. Unfortunately for me, a 2 week trial wouldn't be long enough for me to test the software and present it to the Owner/Engineers here at the office to convince them to convert and get out of this old school software we're using now.

[@be-smart-software]

Thanks for watching and glad to hear of your interest. Please write us at info@agacad[dot]com and one of our specialists will pick up with you. (I've known my colleagues to be flexible regarding trial duration in special situations in the past...)
