  • It's not complicated to run the CNC machine with KCD. It's a little intimidating when you first get it but that's where KCD is great because on the phone they just simplify things a lot. They'll talk you through to get you moving and to the point where your shop can run smoothly. We got a lot of things going at the same time. We were more efficient about how we moved parts through [the shop] because they come off the machine and are labeled. It keeps the cabinet parts organized so that everybody knows what's going on – not just the operator.

  • We're a custom home builder and custom woodshop, so everything we do is different. The program does what we want it to do. KCD helped us streamline the business so we can do more in a shorter time with less people.

  • We thought we would outgrow KCD over the years, but the software grew and advanced right along with us. It used to take us 8 hours for the average mid- to high-end kitchen. Now it takes us under 2 hours.

  • It's easy and has great customer support. You don’t have to take classes to use it. Even today, I'll just watch an online video if I need to refresh my memory. I'm completely satisfied; and if I had to do it again, I would buy KCD Software.
    Barry Chase
    The Webhannet Company
  • They knew exactly what I wanted done, and made it happen. I was impressed right out of the gate. They worked with me over the next month on the phone, and back and forth on the computer, to make sure the software was tailored to my needs. They are completely customer-focused. It’s unbelievable. I would never change software.

  • We do middle- to upper-end custom kitchens ($20,000 to $30,000 range) and we use KCD for every job. We work with homeowners, architects, and designers. If we work with a designer, we enter their design in our system so we can cut it. We can also add more details than the designer thought of.
    Steve Hoff, Owner
    Nelson's Cabinets
  • We've done entire houses, including entertainment centers and cabinetry, using KCD. KCD changed our methodology years ago because we saw features that improved the way we do things. CNC made us more efficient. It helped us streamline. It improved the quality, if anything, because we could go direct to cutting.
    Steve Hoff, Owner

  • I am really impressed with the system. Our sales went up 30% in one year. Most clients have a hard time visualizing their project and KCD is like handing them a photograph of the completed project.
    Don Cuffari
    Owner, ClosetTec, Chesterfield, OH
  • It would be devastating to lose KCD. It's part of our business from the moment clients sit down with us. Every project we do, we're using KCD to design and present it and send it to CNC. I can bring in a new guy and they can use KCD very quickly. Some of them have used other products and they say they really like KCD. They've never tried to talk me into changing.
    Ryan Coats

  • Going to the router is flawless. KCD has simplified the process in a way that really meets our needs. We are always confident the pieces will be cut correctly. It's definitely the simplest, fastest and most reliable software I've ever used.
