Softcover's Marketing Director, Steve Hannath, said "After evaluating various products Boeing NASA Systems has chosen Scan2CAD v7 Pro for its straightforward strengths and price and performance benefits".
"Our product development is ongoing and driven by user requests".

"This was added to v7.2 which is free to v7 users".
"We will do the same for any user with a reasonable and practical request".
