## Reviews

### "Great sheet metal development addon for AutoCad. It has simplified our detailing and drafting." — 5.0/5

> **Steve** | *15 March 2018* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Lots of patterns available. The advanced patter creator (just clicking on two polylines) is fantastic. We often have non-standard patterns and with LITIO we were always able to solve them.
> 
> **Cons**: It was somewhat difficult to learn, how to use the advanced features; we watched the advanced case studies on youtube and then it turned easier.
> 
> We reduced workshop time due to the precision and acurateness of LITIO software; there is no need to make corrections or adjustments. Great program. I recommend it.
