progeCAD is the leader in low cost 2D/3D CAD technology. At progeCAD we're dedicated to providing engineers, designers and other creative professionals with the tools they need to design the world's greatest products.
The first Library of graphic symbols for a CAD system, was delivered at the end of 1985 to ABB Italy. For a long time, progeCAD worked on the development of vertical applications for the industrial environment.
In 1999 progeCAD was one of the founding members of ITC (IntelliCAD Technology Consortium). The IntelliCAD Technology Consortium is an organization of CAD software developers, who develop applications for IntelliCAD, a Computer-aided design engine. The IntelliCAD engine, which is based on the DWGdirect library from the Open Design Alliance reads and writes the ".dwg" data format – a widely used file format for storing both graphic and textual information of CAD-related software applications.
Based on the IntelliCAD engine, progeCAD developed its high end CAD solution. Before progeCAD, the industry was starved for a comprehensive software package for the deploy of 2D/3D drawings based on industrial standard for a fair price. progeCAD met that need.
Based on our communications expertise, we serve our customers' needs through products, services and solutions that deliver long-term benefits and meet the highest standards of quality, reliability and flexibility. We reinforce our customers' competitive strength through integrated solutions.
