Comments about QElectroTech as a Alternative to EPLAN Electric P8
Almost everyone thinks QElectroTech is a great EPLAN Electric P8 alternative.
Guest
Although at first glance it looks the same, a lot of functionality that EPLAN has included is missing from QElectroTech. QElectroTech is barely adequate to get a simple drawing done, but the limitations are cumbersome to work with and using it professionally is out-of-the-question.

EKTS is a simulator for small circuits, while EPLAN is a full-fledged drawing program for circuits that consist of hundreds of pages. That's not even remotely possible with EKTS.
