- Gives Users Platform Choice
Carlson Software is built on both AutoCAD® and IntelliCAD®, allowing its users to choose their CAD platform. The software can be run on AutoCAD, AutoCAD Map®, Land Desktop® or Civil 3d® for versions as far back as those built on AutoCAD 2000. The IntelliCAD that is included for Free is a virtual clone of AutoCAD that works natively in DWG format files (no need for import, export or conversion). - Goes from Concept to Completion
