Gibbs seemed like a fairly good product at the time that I tested it, but the post processing was a problem. They seemed to want to keep everything a secret as far as their post language (compost) was concerned. They wanted to develop and maintain all the post processors. This was unacceptable to me. This may have changed but it is definitely worth checking out.

Get opinions from users, and get a hands on demo from a dealer programming one of your parts. Don't purchase based on their part programs, but yours. And run the part, analyze the code, see what you think of its roughing and surfacing or whatever you are needing. If it works for you, makes you money, then to heck with what other people think.
