Nesting software of choice

[McTechnician]

What nesting software are you guys using now a days. We've been using Match 2 with our mills since we got them but we are looking into possibly switching to something a bit more advanced. What are your favorite features of your nesting software and what made you choose it? One of our main issues with Match 2 has been the inability to change the location of stored files, we tend to operate off a server machine and its quite frustrating we can't save our materials where we'd like.

I use a reskinned version of millbox called ICAM by Imes-Icore, for all intents and purposes it's just millbox. Millbox offers a lot of settings where you can set storage paths and they're relatively easy to configure too. Just from a quick look, it doesn't seem like millbox has the option to store material settings somewhere besides the default path (I may be wrong) but you can set the save path of the reusable blanks. A good reseller would be able to help you with these.
Something I really like about millbox is the ability to modify what the output files save as and save that change for the future. Default files are usually really hard to read so being able to modify those have been helpful. Other than that it's been easy to use (as someone new to CAM) and has worked predictably
