Today IronCAD released the IronCAD Design Collaboration Suite 2011 XG comprising of IRONCAD, INOVATE and a new 2D product called IRONCAD DRAFT priced at $595. Well, actually IRONCAD DRAFT is not a new product. It is a greatly improved and rebranded version CAXA Draft that was bundled with the previous version of IRONCAD.
A little bit of history may help understand this better. CAXA is a Chinese CAD/CAM/PLM provider which has a close strategic partnership with IronCAD. They share development resources. Worldwide sales are operated by IronCAD and sales in China are handled by CAXA. Up until a couple of versions ago, IRONCAD has its own 2D CAD system that was integrated with its flagship IRONCAD 3D MCAD product. That was replaced by CAXA Draft in the last version, which is a popular 2D CAD system in China. At that time IronCAD had promised its customers that CAXA Draft would be improved and integrated more tightly with IRONCAD and INOVATE. It looks like they have delivered on that promise with IRONCAD DRAFT 2011.
