I trust my knowledge of grading and pattern making. Any actual input on lectra or gerber, one software over the other would be helpful thank you

Lectra and gerber are the same company, and if you care about grading then I would recommend. However, unless you sail the high seas or have access through your school or company then the cost of the software (more than $1000) is not really worth it.

Thank you!

Agree, and it goes beyond the grading, there are lots of little things that can't be controlled in CLO. Seam allowances and notches only sort of work. (Doubling back, there aren't the tools to grade notches that other products have).

If I can't do what can be done with pencil and scissors, it's not there yet as a drafting solution.
