We are thinking of updating ours. Wilcom has several options. It's hard to decipher what's what.
What does everybody else use?
-
Pulse DG15 Illustrator Extreme license. So I can't help much.
I like it quite a bit, no experience with Wilcom though. My understanding is those 2 are the top programs. Pulse has been pretty good at pushing some updates / new features the last couple years.
We use Tajima machines so our first machine we bought with the Pulse software.
-
I use DRAWings. It is integrated with Corel Draw, so importing is easy.
-
We have DRAWings now. It's ok honestly.

I have Creative drawings 8. it limits me way too much, zero control of density or underlay. I was looking at DecoStudio e3 but it only works with X6. Is DRAWings Pro any good? I see it offers everything I need.

we have the digitizing version of wilcom that's like 3k. Not sure what they call it.

Yes. I guess I should have specified. I have the Drawings Pro 6.7 They says it is supposed to work with X6 but it doesn't. It works fine with X3.
I have looked at DRAWings Pro 8, but it didn't have anything that I would really use. So I'll keep the 6.7
-
We use Pulse DGML.
-
I don't feel so bad now... I thought EVERYBODY used Wilcom. I just have the
old Gunold WINgs. It does everything I need and the only thing I have seen
with Wilcom is a turning fill.
-
I also have Datastich Pro..I would classify it as the most confusing piece of software I have ever used. everything is performed by sequenced mouse clicks. I gave up.
there is also Sierra Stitch ERA, looks ok. I think wilcom is the way to go though
-
We have Sierra Stitch Era 15 but the only thing I use it for are basic lettering, viewing existing dts files I don't have tech sheets on, and a few other minor things. I just don't have the time to learn how to use it to it's fullest extent but it does seem very capable. Especially for the price compared to others.
-
We got Wilcom with our Barudan and were digitizing right away as it works with Corel. Still lots to learn, but the software is extensive and we'll be going down for a 3 day course this Spring.
