We are considering updating our embroidery software only because our plug in security dongle from our old Pulse system probably won't work on the new computer we are getting. We would like to edit and add lettering. Biggest fear is the learning curve as we have been running this software for 17 years so you hate to have a long learning curve as we need to keep rolling. Any suggestions and reasons why you like yours will be helpful.
thank you in advance.

i was kind of in your same position only i'm a digitizer and not an embroiderer. i used the same software for the first 20 years, and then switched to Wilcom a year ago July. a couple of the reasons i chose wilcom was first, because its the most popular and i had clients wanting the native .emb file. another big factor is because of how it brings in a dst file. its much more editable than my old software.

as far as the learning curve...i had trouble figuring it out at first on my own, but i did go to the class in atlanta and that helped a good bit. when i got home from atlanta i did more simple designs in wilcom, but still reverted back to my old software, but i'd say that within a week i had it down well enough that i didn't need the comfort of my old software. after using wilcom full-time for a couple of months, when i would have to go back to my old software to make edits to designs that i had created there, it was really hard to switch back. i really had to think about what i was doing because wilcom had kind of become ingrained already. i do use the software all day every day tho.
