Anything else is one-direction only, and some leave a lot to be desired.

Bentley software (microstation) they took over a company call Rebis which had one of the better pipe drawing programs

Rebis (Bentley) is the state of the art.

The only down side is the stupid name. It gives totally the wrong impression than it is a sketching program like Paintbrush.

As well as piping, you can do all other disciplines (structural, civil, HVAC, electrical). The latest version is also geared towards Project Management (automatic memos, dicipline tie-ins, P&ID cross checks etc) - but as a Piping Designer I am not familiar with this part as it really is brand new and have not come across it yet in the work place.
This seriously is THE best on the market, but again I know it's not exactly cheap - but as they say, you get what you pay for - or - pay peanuts, get monkeys....
Visit www.aveva.com (formaly www.cadcentre.com), PDS/rebis is not even close...
