Common questions about CAD software for orthotic design
Simply put, OrthoCAD starts at $4,999 for single-user licenses with optional monthly subscriptions available. Here's what you need to know - this includes the complete software, training, and first-year support. Most podiatry practices tell us the ROI occurs within 3-6 months through faster design times and eliminated outsourcing costs.
The key difference is purpose-built tools for orthotic biomechanics versus generic design features. Here's how we help - OrthoCAD includes specialized arch modifications, posting controls, and metatarsal dome placement. Most clinicians find general CAD software too complex, while OrthoCAD speaks their clinical language with automated orthotic workflows.
In short, most practitioners become proficient within 4-8 hours of training. The answer is that OrthoCAD uses familiar podiatric terminology instead of engineering jargon.
