What do you like best about DWG Viewer 2.0?

Managing DWG format files without any cost is what DWG is all about, you can edit, view, and even print 2D and 3D drawings with ease. In addition, you can work with multiple formats, such as PDF to Word, Excel, HTML, PNG, TXT, etc. It is a lightweight software that is capable of handling a number of formats at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DWG Viewer 2.0?

The tool's name suggests that it will serve a viewing purpose, but not for providing support like an Autocad app do. Because we cant design according to our preferences, it is not entirely fruitful for designers. Matured organization prefers Autocad on top of DWG viewer just for factor mentioned. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DWG Viewer 2.0 solving and how is that benefiting you?

The struggle with DWF and DXF files is minimized for me . Even though it is helping me manage 3D models because this version of the app also offers some editing features for my work. As a result, it minimized my surfing and allowed me to work on multiple tasks simultaneously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about DWG Viewer 2.0?

When reviewing DWG files from AutoCAD, this software is a bit more advanced than other software such as Adobe. DWG Viewer allows basic tools to modify and annotate objects, similar to within AutoCAD, but it is great because you can open/view a DWG without having to PDF it first before sending it out for review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DWG Viewer 2.0?

For large companies where software is used every day, DWG Viewer is not necessary as AutoCAD works just as well to open, modify, and review DWG files. This might benefit someone that has no access to AutoCAD instead. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DWG Viewer 2.0 solving and how is that benefiting you?

This solves the problem of reviewing DWG files if you do not have a license for CAD software applications. If for some reason PDF versions of drawings are not available, this is a good replacement tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Because DWG Viewer is mainly used for viewing PDFs it obviously does not have the design functions of AutoCAD but it is designed for users who may just need to download and look at DWG files that have been shared with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DWG Viewer is a great alternative to AutoCAD. I am not a user of AutoCAD but I often deal with DWG files so I can easily view these files online using DWG Viewer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about DWG Viewer 2.0?

DWG viewer is a good and user-friendly software that allows you to view files on the go. You can also edit these files. Hence, it minimizes the need to convert the files to some other format to view them. Most of the time it is not possible or required to download AutoCAD software. Hence, DWG viewer is the best solution for this purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DWG Viewer 2.0?

The download size of DWG is a bit high and it is quite resource intensive. Hence, it does not run smoothly on low-end machines. It sometimes changes the designs or does not accurately reproduce the design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DWG Viewer 2.0 solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is best for someone who just wants to review the designs made by the design team. It is also a very good tool for presenting the designs. Hence, it saves the costs on buying additional licenses of AutoCAD just for the purpose of viewing the designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
