Enables advanced features of our HPR plasma system (True Hole, Fine Feature, SureCut). Customer performance, as with all Hypertherm products, is the best out there. Tech Support even helped me make custom report templates for our labels. > > **Cons**: Modules for software features that are standard on some other software are an add-on which comes a hefty price and increases the yearly maintenance fee. These features include advanced plasma (for their own plasma systems), autonesting, skeleton cut-up, common line cutting, etc. > > My overall experience is Pronest works well, and technical support is the best in the business. I feel Pronest gives us the best cut possible on our machine and less cutting issues while running the machine. To get the most out of a Hypertherm plasma, I think Pronest is the way to go. ----- ### "Cutting Edge Software" — 5.0/5 > **Eric** | *28 August 2020* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The multiple functions that it can perform to make jobs less than a task is unbelievable. There are more features than probably required for any user,but they are there. I use it with a Design2fab program and the two mesh seamlessly . > > **Cons**: I don't believe there are features that need much , if any improvement. It's usually just a matter of tweeking whats there to get the desired result. Updates usually roll out improvements and refine any issues. > > ProNest allows us to save time,material and labour costs.It allows you to put your product out at a more competitive price. You don't know what your capabilities are until you've tried the software. ----- ### "Review" — 4.0/5 > **David** | *8 September 2020* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: We were able to automate the file list which greatly increased the speed of compiling and creating nests > > **Cons**: It took a while to set up and test the automated lists ----- ### "Pro Nest in education" — 4.0/5 > **MARK** | *21 September 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Wide range of abilities and real world applications. > > **Cons**: Can be complicated at times, A lot of steps to get to the end point of your cut job, Some ghost cuts or differences from the cad drawing to the cutter, However, this seems to be rare. > > Very technical for part of the software--may be my learning curve, but the pro nest software can do whatever I need once we get the drawing done. Overall very satisfied. ----- ### "Great software, so much better than the software that actually came with my CNC machine" — 4.0/5 > **Jody** | *9 November 2021* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Nesting feature and easy to edit lead ins and outs. > > **Cons**: Not sure if I like the CAD software that comes with it. Could be that I'm just not familiar with it and are more familiar with my current CAD software. Cool thing is that I can use either. > > Saving a lot of $$$ that used to be wasted on excess material lost. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/2051528/pronest?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/2051528/pronest) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
