Digitizing software

I'm thinking of buying digitizing software but don't know where to begin. The only one I've looked into is Generations Master Works; but that cost if $1,900. I'll appreciate any direction anyone can give regarding value versus cost for any software you are familiar with. Thank you.

Hi Venessa,
I'm in the same boat, but I found some of the various companies out there will offer a free or reduced price demo. One might be good for one person, might not be good for others. So I recommend you check out some of the demos and see which one works best for you.

Well ... Software is complicated. Generations can get you by. I've used it before. I know we've all got to start somewhere, but in the grand scheme of software $1,900 for digitizing software is cheap cheap cheap. Wilcom Level 3 is almost $10,000.

Try to hit up eBay or maybe some local sewing stores, for a copy of Generations or you can also try 4D its another program. Don't know much about it however.

Sorry I'm not much more help than that.

You have to check out Floriani's Embroidery Suite 2009. It has 9 modules; you can buy what you need or want. Free support forum, 20 some how-to videos, online manuals for all modules, free training webinars, free upgrades, no dongles, lessons from a master digitizer (50 years in the business). The enitire suite is less than $1500.

I also have the Wings Pro Modular software which cost around $10,000. It has been retired. The Floriani software is far superior and easier to use. No commercial ties to Walt Floriani; Just a great product!

Hello I would suggest rather than purchasing the Software which costs $10,000 for the high end software like Wilcom and then hiring a person to do the digitizing, why don't you look at the option of having that service outsourced? There is a company called www.mambodigitizing.com which has the Wilcom Software and they are digitizing for $2/1000 stitches and have a US person in the US you can speak to. They also embroider the design to see if the digitizing will run well on your machine. Well thats my opinion anyways
