""ABB started with progeCAD in the year 2000. ABB has distributed around 15,000 licenses of progeCAD to run our specific application for the Electrical environment; we are also using hundreds of licenses as a CAD base. Our choice for progeCAD was mainly based on the importance of the DWG format and our users past experiences on AutoCAD. The most important benefits are related to the easy and profitable drawing sharing, thanks to the standard DWG format support." - Ing. Maurizio Falsone, ABB Group; www.abb.com
