## Reviews

### "Best software recommandés at 100%" — 5.0/5

> **Jean** | *13 December 2022* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The one when i was a beginner gave me self confidence and helped me to know remains for me a Friend thanks to autocad i know the succès and i am called a little genius
> 
> **Cons**: Especially i see not much l'ESS liked in the beginning it was a little difficult for me my level of english was low but i ended up finding myself it is whit Heart that i give my opinion

-----

### "Extremely useful but needs a facelift" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *1 February 2019* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Hurricane will allow you to easily a script or lisp routine on hundreds of drawings by dragging and dropping them into the program. You can technically do this already in AutoCAD but using Hurricane is much faster. Customer support is top notch
> 
> **Cons**: The user interface is confusing and outdated.
> 
> As the sole drafter /designer in my company, it allows me to automate repetive tasks like having to put an IFC stamp on 100 drawings or pasting in a new titleblock

-----

### "Good - Helps with productivity but not very user friendly" — 3.0/5

> **Levi** | *2 February 2019* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: PDFs saved directly to the same directory&#10;Relatively fast&#10;Keeps the title the same as AutoCAD drawing
> 
> **Cons**: Hard to get started&#10;Crashes all the time&#10;The GUI feels like it belongs in the early 90s.&#10;Getting the key emailed to you and manually installed into the program seems outdated since other software doesn't require that when you pay for the item
> 
> Rapidly increased productivity for bulk drawing production but took a lot to learn how to get started and use the program and not extremely user friendly. In short, the concept is great, the application is mediocre.

-----

### "Great program, great customer support" — 5.0/5

> **Scott** | *12 October 2017* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ability to change many things in an AutoCAD drawing in a short amount of time, the ease to set up and use, the customer support, ability to run a test run on drawings and it won't save the outcome so that you can see if it is doing what you want it to do, ability to save your scripts for use with other projects, the titleblock update wizard
> 
> **Cons**: The only things I really don't like is that you have to work it from a mapped network drive.  I would like to have the ability to type in a path \\\\servername\\foldername.  And the UI could use a freshening up, looks like Windows 98/XP type, need ribbons and so on.
> 
> Being able to change many aspects of many drawings quickly, title block changes and so forth that users would have to do one at a time, I can do all in a short amount of time

### "Since discovering the software it has been a godsend when dealing with large numbers of files." — 5.0/5

> **Ashleigh** | *6 September 2017* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very powerful if used correctly. Started off using it just to print large quantities of files, now it gets used for almost all repetitive tasks and saves me at least an hour each day on average.
> 
> **Cons**: The licensing would be the least likable option. If you license to a user then if that person leaves the company the license is lost. If you license it to a computer when the computer is replaced after say 5 years, the license is lost. If you license to a USB stick, if the USB stick is damaged, license lost (don't use cheap USB sticks).
> 
> Time saving would be the highest benefit.
