• We think it may be time to update our CAD software. Our 20 year old Protel 99SE still runs well but we are starting to rely on different hacks to keep it running on later versions of Windows.
  
  DipTrace seems to be reasonably priced. We don't do anything too fancy but need a reliable & efficient commercial package.
  
  
  Has anyone moved from Protel 99SE to DipTrace and been satisfied?
  
  Thanks

  I did many years ago and I have always been happy enough with Diptrace.

  Thanks for the feedback. I have had a play with it and it does look good.
