John MacKenzie,
Welcome to the forum.
I believe my opinion will be echoed throughout the forum when I say that it is ultimately worth the trip to this side. But, you will need to be prepared to encounter a learning curve; as with any new software.
e_cabinets has the absolute best support system in the galaxy. 24/7 and in most cases, problems are resolved that day.
Without mentioning software names; I have had experience with a few. Been to classes for CNC automation and I give the learning curve a rating based on your imagination and understanding of the way e_cabinets function.
Once you become familiar with the editors, their functions and abilities. e_cabinets will become your preferred software. I have been with e_cabinets for some time now. And, if I have measurements appliances and room size, I can design a standard kitchen with the customers sitting in my office in about four hours and provide a proposal. Although I do need extra time to place the bells and whistles of course. I have a standard cabinet directory I designed for my company and I use it for these kitchens. Other bells whistles and specialty items, cost a lot of money; for them of course.
It is a fully
custom cabinet software, driven by it's cooperative members suggestions and support. I encourage you to purchase through the system every chance you get, even if you can get hinges for 20% less. Another benefit is the router purchase assistance program, five% goes to a purchase.

My opinion is, the benefits are tilting the scale.
And as always the choice is yours. You have the best support, right here.
Cheers
