I have just Upgraded from Wilcom ES plus to Deco Studio. I am very impressed with the ability to draw the design in Corel Draw and then convert to Digitise in the one program. The Auto digitsing is not perfect but good enough to instantly show customers what thier design will look like when stitched out.
Wilcom also have a help forum
embroiderystartup dot com
with many tricks and tips.
Hope it helps.
