ProgeCAD Smart! Smarter Than Ever!

progeCAD Smart! has been downloaded more than 10,000 times since the announcement of the free AutoCAD clone. Smart! traffic has exceeded a total of more than a terabyte of bandwidth (a thousand gigabytes by ISP accounting). Because of increasing international demand, limited bandwidth and high costs in Australia, CADDIT has been forced to move the primary download to a server in the USA. progeCAD Smart! can now be downloaded directly without initial registration on the CADDIT CADstore.

The new URL for progeCAD Smart! is:

A new direct download URL for progeCAD Professional has also been announced:
