WHY INSTALLERS SHOULD TAKE CAD SERIOUSLY

Computer Aided Design or CAD software is a useful tool commonly used by bathroom retailers and designers to create plans for their customers, as well as generate renders of their customer’s bathrooms, to show them how the final project will look. But CAD isn’t exclusively for designers and retailers, it can be a really useful tool for installers too.

As well as offering a straightforward design tool, Compusoft’s Winner and Innoplus software features comprehensive searchable catalogues with details and highly accurate measurements, which allow the user to create accurate 2D plans which can be used as an installation guide.

These 2D plans can then easily and quickly be converted into photo-realistic 3D renders.

EASY TO USE

It is often assumed that CAD software is complicated to use and that you have to be an expert to use it. This is wrong! "Installers should embrace the technology now available and use it as a vehicle to stand out, win more business, reduce operating costs through clarity, upsell new and exciting product and concepts, all whilst providing the customer with an experience to match their expectations."

It’s true that some CAD software packages are trickier to get to grips with than others, but some are incredibly simple to learn and use.
