Incredible tech support. > > **Cons**: Can't think of anything. We have been using it since 1993 and all of the updates were great. > > runs our manufacturing ----- ### "Patternsmith Allowed us to Grow" — 5.0/5 > **Dustin** | *9 August 2019* | Textiles | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use and the ability to have multiple people in our learn how to use and operate. I really like that talks directly to the cutter and there is not an in-between software. > > **Cons**: There are some features that I wish were in that I was used to in other CAD software. ----- ### "PatternSmith is a powerful CAD program that is flexible to work with a variety of cutting machines." — 4.0/5 > **Scott** | *21 August 2017* | Textiles | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: PatternSmith is very easy to use. It has powerful tools in the editor mode that can be easily set up for your own specifications. We also export all of programs as .nc files that can be used for a variety of cutting machines. It also incorporates a material library much like other more expensive software platforms. When used in conjunction with AutoMetrix cutting tables the result is smooth, fast cutting with the ability to change the nesting area as needed for specialty fabrics and recuts. I would recommend Patternsmith to anyone who does high volume programming with multiple machine formats. > > **Cons**: I would like to see some dimensioning capabilities in future releases. There are also problems associated with the back button and the software locking up. This usually occurs when there are a lot of radiuses or complex math equations working in the background. Saving to polylines often results in broken pieces such as a square having only three sides after saving it, At this time users are not able to set up a que for programs. They need to load each program individually for cutting. > > Ease of use. Flexible. ----- ### "Purpose-built software with some bizarre bugs. (patternsmith 7.6-7.7)" — 3.0/5 > **Karl** | *30 August 2019* | Sporting Goods | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: The integration between the pattern editing and nesting is seamless. When it's dialed, it's very efficient. It runs on old computers because, well, it's pretty old. Customer service is awesome if you have a service contract. > > **Cons**: Crashes frequently. No autosave function. When nesting a table, executing the undo command repeatedly explodes all the parts to random parts of the table you're working on, and sometimes replaces them with other random parts that weren't even in the table.... let's just say it has a revisionist approach to history. In 7.6, the labels for different nests magically trade places and generally pull random words from other nests, sometimes from other files altogether. > > We're running and Autometrix table, and Patternsmith is the best tool that integrates seamlessly. When it works, it's very efficient. Once you get accustomed to the workarounds and establish a workflow, custom work can be drawn up very quickly. Customer service is outstanding. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.in/software/89382/patternsmith?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.in/software/89382/patternsmith) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
