MAJOR RoofCAD UPDATE!

One of our biggest updates ever is coming soon!

RoofCAD 5.0 is chock full of great new features either we've cooked up or you've suggested.

Highlights:

Satellite Image Drawings and Takeoffs: Make a drawing before you even leave your air conditioned office. What? Don't have a Digitizer license? No worries. We've included a Free Trial and complete tutorials with good old regular RoofCAD.

New Smarter Smart Objects and Symbols: A whole new set of Smart Objects and symbols make for better drawing quality and takeoff information.

Feet and Inches Input: Enter all your dimensions in feet and inches.

So how do I get the coolest update ever?

Because of the hordes of customers (that's you guys) who want this, we've upgraded the capacity of our Internet pipe line. Despite this we still need to stage delivery. There are just too many of you out there!

We'll send you e-mail when we're ready for you . What you can do now is prepare for RoofCAD 5 by making sure your computer is ready. That means making sure you have Windows updates and our RoofLogic Gateway internet updater installed.

Gateway? Huh? Wazzat?

If you don't know what Gateway is or you're not sure you have it installed, take a moment to read our instructions to prepare for your update.

New Features-Partial Listing

Satellite Drawings and Takeoffs- Free Trial Included!

If you have a Digitizer license, now you can get drawings and takeoffs using satellite images. Satellite images from Google Earth, Microsoft Virtual Earth and other services have come a long way and we've been working hard over the last six months to take advantage of this exciting new way to draw and takeoff your roofs.

Gasp! Don't own a Digitizer license? Give it a try anyway. There's a built-in free trial that comes with regular RoofCAD 5.
