A brief history
Pointcarre pioneered CAD technology back in 1987. That same pioneering spirit is every bit as evident today. We listen attentively to what our customers and the design community tell us they need, and we strive to meet those requirements. Originally, Pointcarre existed as a division of Monarch Knitting Machinery Corporation. As of March 1st 2001, Pointcarre, an exclusive developer of proprietary apparel and textile-design software, has established itself as an independent corporation and formed a wholly owned subsidiary in the United States. It is now known as Pointcarre North America.
With the largest CAD design customer base in North America, a strong international presence, and a dynamic product base, our future growth is assured. Our commitment to providing the highest quality products, and customer service, is stronger than ever before. We have earned our reputation for integrity because we view the relationship with our customers as a partnership. We feel our job first begins, not ends, when your CAD solution is delivered to your door.

Service, Support and Training
Pointcarre has become the benchmarch in the industry for its dedication to customer service. In researching a CAD solution for your company, do not overlook the value of quality customer service. Realize that for every minute a designer is unable to use the software because they cannot get an immediate answer to a question, it costs your firm money. Our training and support staff are veterans of the fashion and textile industries. We understand the daily pressure designers are under and therefore provide the fastest response time to support calls in the business. Our training is second to none. We provide unparalleled training in the use of our software. No where in the industry is training done on such a personal level. We conduct training for one customer at a time, specifically geared to that customer’s needs and level of understanding.
