close window
Since October 2002, we have been consolidating the brand names under which
TrueCAD / ChoiceCAD was sold around the world, and have now settled on AllyCAD
as the original name under which the product was developed and sold. We offer a 65% upgrade discount for
old TrueCAD / ChoiceCAD users that wish to upgrade to the latest version of
AllyCAD Professional.
On upgrading you will receive the
latest version of AllyCAD Pro 3.4 on CD, user guide, reference manual, quick
start-up guide, accelerator key card and security dongle (Printer Port or USB).
All menus are active and the file size is unlimited.
You will also receive all upgrades for one year and have access to our customer
support centre for one year. This is essentially a new purchase except in name,
is exceptional value (only 35% of the new cost) and is only available to
existing TrueCAD/ChoiceCAD users. Don't miss out on this incredible offer!

upgrade? You

CHOICECAD / TRUECAD FAQ |
|
|
|
1 |
-
What happened to ChoiceCAD / TrueCAD?
AllyCAD, ChoiceCAD and
TrueCAD have always been the same product, but AllyCAD is simply the
latest version. We have since decided to standardise under one brand name
(AllyCAD) in order to simplify world-wide support.
|
|
2 |
-
Can AllyCAD read ChoiceCAD / TrueCAD files?
Yes, the file format is
identical.
|
|
3 |
-
Is AllyCAD similar to ChoiceCAD / TrueCAD?
It is identical except that it has minor interface changes, substantial
changes in functionality and includes our sought after toolkits. At one
stage all three products were identical except in branding. Since the
decision to move to one brand name no updates have been provided for
ChoiceCAD or TrueCAD, which means that they are now significantly lacking
in the features that AllyCAD provides.

Will I have to go through a learning curve?
No, AllyCAD is identical to
ChoiceCAD and TrueCAD. It is just a later version with many improvements.
All the menus, snaps, geometry etc are there.

-
Will Archimate / Mechmate work with AllyCAD?
These add-ons (produced by
other companies) were designed to work with an older version of
AllyCAD/ChoiceCAD/TrueCAD and will no longer function in AllyCAD. We have
however introduced Architectural and Mechanical Toolkits in AllyCAD, which
have similar functionality to these add-ons.

-
Can I easily upgrade to AllyCAD?
Yes, the file format is
identical so loading existing ChoiceCAD and TrueCAD drawings is very easy.
The interface, menus and keystrokes are the same, which means that you
will be up to speed in no time at all. You will also have access to new
and improved AllyCAD functionality, in particular, the new sought-after
Toolkit functions.
