"CIMdata views Mastercam® as the de facto industry standard PC-based CAM software product. It is a well-known, competitively priced, general-purpose software that provides a broad base of modeling and NC software capability. It is appropriate for most machining environments, from production machining operations within manufacturing firms to machining relatively complex surfaces within mold shops. It is particularly well suited to job shops that have a wide range of machining requirements". (Alan Christman, "High Marks for a Software Standard," Tooling and Production, June, 2001)
