Laptop malfunction.

08/05/2025

Having been to local computer shop who couldn’t find the fault causing my laptop to malfunction, was beginning to think I would have to buy a new one. Heard about Andrew and he was able to solve the problem very quickly. Very grateful that he found the fault and explained why it had happened.

Essential Alarm Tool for Screen-Focused Work

08/05/2025

I recently downloaded Alarm Clock by TruckleSoft and found it to be a simple yet effective tool. It’s easy to install, user friendly, and offers a nice selection of alarm ringtones. It’s ideal for desktop users who spend long hours at the computer and need gentle reminders. Best of all, it’s free to use making it a practical addition to any productivity setup.

Andrew Truckle (soft) - The all-rounder

04/05/2025

Designsense Software now (and earlier Four Dimension Technologies) have been associated with Andrew Truckle for more than 15 years.

I have engaged with Andrew for various technical tasks, and he is a thorough perfectionist.

Whether it is CAD programming, seeking help for code-signing, building a web-page, or just engaging him in selling software as a reseller, Andrew is a person that wears multiple hats and does justice to all of them.

Andrew has been my goto-person whenever I had to get a technical point verified, clarified or discussed.

I recommend Andrew Truckle and his services. They are best suited for small to medium companies, for whom budget is an important factor, but wanting to adapt and use productivity procedures in their engineering CAD design workflows.

There are experts out there like Truckelsoft who can suggest to you how you can do things better. Reach out and learn how you can benefit from automation.

We wish him all the best!
