"TurboCAD™s niche in the market is to be the alternative to
AutoCAD LT. It does so by staying price-competitive with LT while offering
an expanded feature set including 3D design tools, something not available
in LT." Click

In the last 8 years that I used TurboCAD, today is the first time I felt
that TurboCAD is no longer a cheap copy of AutoCAD. The challenge is now
inventor not AutoCAD or AutoCAD Lt."

"This is not a toy, but a true solid-modelling package based on
the newest version of the ACIS solid-modelling kernel. For those making
their initial foray into 3D modelling, especially in the mechanical world,
it should definitely be considered."
Dr. Joel Orr, Cyon Research
"...demostrated how the faces of solids (and surfaces) can be deformed
interactively. TurboCAD has two methods: apply a uniform pressure to the
face, and get a bell-shape; or define points that constrain the deformation.

"With its TurboCAD line, IMSI has been demostrating for years that
the drafting needs of many thousands of engineering and architectural
professionals can be more than adequately met with software costing only
a couple hundred dollars."
Dr. Joel Orr, Cyon Research
"The latest release of the high-end version of TurboCAD, must force
many users to ask if the additional features of SolidWorks, Inventor,
or Solid Edge are worth several thousand dollars."
Dr. Joel Orr,
Cyon Research
"TurboCAD now creates cross-sections linked to views. Several standard
cross-sections are predefined; new cross-sections are defined by simply
placing a line, and selecting the side to show. I particulary like the
preview window that shows the cross-section before committing."

Grabowski, Editor upFront.eZine
"If you're looking for a good CAD tool, an inexpensive alternative
to market-leader AutoCAD, TurboCAD Professional has much to offer."
