## Reviews

### "From solidworks Electrical to Cofaso" — 5.0/5

> **Ivan** | *February 19, 2022* | Industrial Automation | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is very inexpensive compared to other products, its very easy to use and has all the features I needed for electrical design. My transition from solidworks to Cofaso was very clean, and to train users on the software was very easy, opposed to AutoCAD Electrical. 
What was great is that I could make both electrical and pneumatic diagrams.
> 
> **Cons**: I believe the numbering system numbers the page as a whole, meanwhile, I wanted a Branch to keep a certain sufix, but this was not possible as in solidworks electrical. It is a very minor detail, but I had to manually name all phases in my diagrams modifying the sufix to accomodate to the standard we had in the shop.
> 
> It is very positive, design is easy, adding components is easy, the catalog is very extense, the BOM feature is very handy.
