A new version under a new brand brings even easier access to standard formats and direct integration with online services

Cambridge, UK and Pittsford, NY – 27 January 2021: M4 PERSONAL was previously known as MEDUSA4 Personal, and is in use worldwide with more than 250,000 installations. The CAD software has been used for many years to create CAD drawings quickly and easily in the home, education and small business environments. 

DWG and DXF editing with M4 PERSONAL

With its versatile CAD functionality and ability to edit DWG and DXF files, the software has not only established itself with many private users and educational institutions, but also with companies that only occasionally require CAD software.

New version under new brand

With version 7.0, CAD Schroer combines its engineering software for mechanical engineering, factory design and plant construction in a common CAD suite. From the new version onwards, all CAD products will be bundled under the common M4 brand. "As a result of this restructuring, all CAD products will now appear uniformly under the common M4 brand, and will be able to meet our customers' needs and wishes even better," said Michael Schroer, Managing Director of CAD Schroer.

Free for private use, pay per result for business

The private, non-commercial use of M4 PERSONAL is absolutely free. Commercial use is based on the "Pay per Result" principle: created drawings are simply activated for commercial use via CSG eSERVICES. Companies do not pay for the software itself, but only for the results achieved with it. According to the Pay per Result principle, the finished drawings are converted to e.g. PDF, DWG or DXF format for a small fee from 2,99 Euro per drawing.

Direct integration with CSG eSERVICES

With version 7.0 M4 PERSONAL gets an even better integration with CSG eSERVICES. Previously, drawings always had to be converted into the required format via the CSG eSERVICES online portal, but now M4 PERSONAL itself offers the possibility to convert drawings directly into the required format. The software has been integrated with CSG eSERVICES, so that the user gets direct access to their conversion credits using their account login. The user can see how many credits remain in their account, and they can perform conversions into the required formats with the M4 PERSONAL software. Purchasing additional conversion credits is still achieved via the CSG eSERVICES portal.
