Bundle CAMBAM+Mach3+CutViewer - feedback missing

[micserver]

Hello,
my plan is to buy the dBundle CAMBAM+Mach3+CutViewer ... but I want to be sure to invest in a software which ist "still alive".
Trying to contact the shop via web formular was not successful ... so my question to the community before I pay more than 300.- Euros to a shop I never had contact with before:
How are your experiences with the shop, is this bundle a good choice or should I wait for mach4 bundle?

Waiting for positive news , Michael

Michael,

I have no opinion on the bundle but I can offer the following information.

Regarding "still alive" product, you may want to read these posts;

You probably know there is no upgrade route from Mach3 to Mach4, they say Mach4 is a new product, so that will have to be your choice.

I bought the CamBam + CutViewer bundle several years ago, there is now an open source alternative to CutViewer called Camotics, you might want to try it out first.

With regard to response from the shop, I'm afraid I can't help with that, the best advice I can give is to send a private message to dh42 the forum Administrator.

Hello,

Yes Cambam is still alive

Concerning the reply to the web form, be patient, Andy can't reply every days.

Note that if you buy cutviewer alone it cost 250€ ...Mach3 ~150€ ... the bundle is a good price.

Yes, the price of the bundle is one reason for my decision and all tools worked fine together in demo mode.

One more thing, I would make sure the prices are still valid for 2016 first.

- order confirmation per eMail within minutes
- licence key files per eMail in the same night
- just installed, licences keys were accepted

=> very exemplary responsiveness !!
