I have looked high and low for a replacement, I have not found one. I tried
Gibbs on a 30 day trial. If you like to draw in smartcam, no package will
measure up. NO package has pick and filter options for ease of drawing like
smartcam, especially gibbs. The local guy in town that uses Gibbs hates the
way it draws, but likes its toolpath creation.
I've tried gibbs, Esprit, Camworks, mastercam. They won't draw worth a damn
and you have to lay down toolpath instead of creating it directly. If you're
doing mold work this may be ok though. Esprit 2000+ is looking better with
it's feature recognition but is still sucks on the drawing side.
The guys at Point were way ahead of the game when they setup Smartcam to be
able to get X,Y, and Z values from picking the element, nobody else does
this.

My company is looking at replacing Smartcam with Gibbs. Does anyone have any
opinions on this software?

Thanks,
