## Surfcam Reviews
  ### 1. Good in writing posts but not good for comfortable working

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gulam F. | Leading Design Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 24, 2019

**What do you like best about Surfcam?**

The most helpful about SurfCAM is good ''mini-program" in writing post processors. Also surface milling is not bad.

**What do you dislike about Surfcam?**

The program is very uncomfortable in use. It's very uncomfortable in definition of stock and MAC position. Also very hard to work with solid files for example in drilling, you have to make 2d sketches around holes to drill it, you can't just choose holes in solid file. (STEP)

**Recommendations to others considering Surfcam:**

N/A

**What problems is Surfcam solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I was working in mold design. 3-axis works.
Now i use another CAM program which is really comfortable for me.
