One of the greatest CAD software

What do you like best?

In high school we used to work in Auto CAD and it was a great experience but quite a learning curve. First year of college we had Engineer Graphics as part of the curriculum and we were all given a paid version of Draft Sight. The transition went very smoothly, everything you need is there and the software is CAD software. As far as I know, with Draft Sight you can do everything you can with the tool Auto CAD, if not more.

What do you dislike?

There are very small dislikes on my side regarding Draft Sight, the software is designed to be CAD software for technical drawing on the PC and you can do everything that the popular competitors can do but with a smaller price. My one big drawback is the complicated learning curve but that has to do with the type of software and not Draft Sight in particular.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

I would whole heartedly recommend Draft Sight to everyone planning on switching to something less expensive.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Draft Sight was the main software of one of my college courses and we the students used to draw objects the professor told us to draw, in the said software. I finished the course with a good grade and can say that I have good knowledge and experience with Draft Sight and the technical drawing aspect. So to summarize, in my opinion the software is built to be an Auto CAD clone that you can get for a cheaper price but can basically do everything you would otherwise pay a much larger price for. In that regard the software deliveres.
