Hi
This is simply not true - I use EPLAN 5.70 and have talked a lot to others using and selling 21.
Main differencesare:
EPLAN 5: older DOS roots, less automatic functions while drawing, capable of makeing 10.000 pages long drawings, rock stable
EPLAN 21: new windows roots, more automatic functions while drawing, not capable of makeing very big plans because of the online checks
EPLAN also knows that both has advantages and disadvantages. They started to develop EPLAN 21 but because of it's backdraws they didn't stop EPLAN 5. Instead they started to make a new one which will be the successor of both.
This will be EPLAN Electric P8. This is already announced on their we site.
This new will be able to use the projects of both 5.70 and 21.
I'm really looking forward using it
