CADViewer review
A wide-deployment CAD viewer for teams embedding drawings into business applications.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
CADViewer is browser-based CAD viewing and collaboration infrastructure from Tailor Made Software, Ltd. It is designed for enterprise teams that need to display and work with technical drawings inside applications and business systems. The viewer supports DWG, DXF, and DWF files, along with MicroStation formats, vector PDFs, SVG, and raster graphics. Its core tools cover measurement and calibration, redlining, annotations, drawing comparison, layer handling, dynamic highlighting, and multiselection.
Integration is a central part of the product. REST and JSON APIs support application development, while listed integrations and frameworks include Nextcloud, SharePoint, Leaflet, OpenStreetMap, PHP, Node.js, .NET, ASP.NET Core, Servlets, Angular, React, Ionic, Laravel, and Vue.js. Deployment can be handled in cloud environments or on premises, with web, Windows, Linux, iOS, Android, API, and self-hosted platform coverage. Space management and CAD data extraction extend the product beyond file display for applications that need structured interaction with drawing content.
The published pricing model is contact sales, with custom server and application-integration licensing. The vendor describes component and bundle licensing rather than a conventional user-based plan structure, so buyers should evaluate the required deployment and integration scope with sales. CADViewer fits organizations building CAD capabilities into existing software, portals, or operational systems. Teams seeking a straightforward viewer with a simple public subscription structure may find its enterprise-oriented licensing and integration focus less suitable.
