Anyone using it? I have to upgrade my Cutlist Plus if I want to use it and it looks like drag and drop editing is really the only other advantage of an upgrade for me.

It certainly looks pretty cool. I just downloaded it not even knowing that it works in conjugation with the windows software. I'm a Mac user. Doh! I do have Windows XP I can run via Parallels on my MacBook Pro.

I like the labor calculations. Pretty cool looking. I can't wait to try it out tomorrow.

I don't need any estimating/labor functionality. I currently have the Gold edition because I got a practically free edition upgrade during a version upgrade, but I'm considering just buying Silver as I've never exceeded the 50 unique part constraint. Had more than 50 parts, but many duplicate cabinet sides, shelves, etc. And I don't have plans for any kitchens in the foreseeable future.

I sure could've used this yesterday. I'm bidding on a job that may have me building 200 4 compartment storage bins. 200 faces, 200 tops, 200 backs, and bottoms, and 1000 side/dividers. My other cultist app took about 10 minutes to calculate. 284 sheets of 3/4" Melamine!

A bit off topic, but would this software be useful for someone who does not use sheet goods or build kitchen cabinets?

Do you use sketchup? There is a free add in for cutlist. Love it.
