gCADPlus landscape design software is often referred to by users as gcad. The name gCAD was an abbreviation of an early attempt to develop a low cost landscape design application based on AutoCAD called GardenCAD.
gCADPlus (aka GardenCAD Plus, gCAD Plus, gcad) GardenCAD is a tool developed for groups of landscape design students at a local college. We now have users in many countries. gCADPlus was developed by three designers – two in Australian and one in the USA who were long term AutoCAD users. They saw the need for a modestly priced landscape tool that used AutoCAD command and was focused on landscape design.
Development of gCADPlus is a labour of love – every dollar raised from sales is used to pay programmers to improve and add features to the software. The first version of gCADPlus was published in 2012. There have been > 70 versions released in that time, each adding features requested by users. We do not charge for upgrades. The current version of gCADPlus is 10.2.
