I currently use both programs. I would have to say that since converting to AutoSprink, I have seen nearly a 200% increase in production. There are some things that are "unique" with AutoSprink, but they are no different than the quirks of other programs.
The listing is superior for AutoSprink. The calcs are great. I am also still a fan of HydraCAD. I think hydraCAD has some of the best AutoCAD cleanup tools out there. The bayspace command in hydracad is also a great tool for use in many buildings. There are comparable entities in AutoSprink. I could probably write a volume comparing the pros v cons of each program. I will say that since AutoSprink dropped their price SIGNIFICANTLY, it is going to get a larger market share. You may also want to visit the AutoSprink forums at www.autosprink.com to see what issues / comments other users are having.
