allowing it to print and customise project reports whatever the size or scale. The software essentially grows with the user’s business.


Faster design process The software’s ‘one size fits all’ concept allows the engineer to work within a single package, rather than several, saving time and providing a quicker service to their clients. It also allows users to archive the designs of all types of project and installation that the company may be involved in. This means previous electrical designs can be adapted to suit the needs of projects of a similar type, and not re-invented from scratch.


Affordable software Unlike other software packages – which charge high annual fees for updates and ongoing maintenance fees – designgenie comes with free updates, free maintenance and a free customer care line for the first 12 months. It also works across all operating systems supported by Microsoft, so in most cases there is no need to buy a new PC .
