PowerPVC Small Business is a specialized window and door design software developed by Bistriy. It is specifically built to help industrial window companies, manufacturing shops, and engineering firms streamline their estimations, design processes, and cost calculations. Core Capabilities
Multi-Material Support: The software generates designs and calculations for structures made from wood, aluminum, PVC, and uPVC.
Unlimited Components: Users can add an infinite number of profile and hardware components to their catalog manually. You do not need developer support to update your system when a supplier provides a new catalog.
Comprehensive Reporting: The system exports over 10 essential production reports. These include customer quotes, assembly drawings, glass lists, hardware lists, and reinforcement lists.
Production Calculations: It computes complex item costs (including windows, jalousies, glass fills, and arches) while tracking manufacturing and warehouse accounts. Technical Architecture
On-Site Mobility: Optimized to run efficiently on portable hardware—including netbooks and older Intel CPUs—making it highly accessible for on-site client negotiations.
Database Reliability: The program utilizes server-side storage engines via FireBird or Microsoft SQL to prevent component catalog data loss.
Fast Processing: Due to its hardware optimization, maximum-sized orders can be processed and calculated in under two minutes. Cost and Deployment Logistics
Database Excluded: The software is delivered as an empty shell. The manufacturer or business owner must manually import or create their own supplier profiles and hardware catalogs.
Trial Period: A 30-day evaluation trial is available by downloading the installation file and selecting the “Evaluate” option.
Upgrade Policy: Minor version updates (e.g., version 11.xx) are free, while major platform version upgrades cost 25% of the full retail price.
