Easy to Use Software for Engineering Drafting

Overall it's an easy toolset allowing us as engineers (and other team members) create our own model drawings from scratch or modify them easily without coding knowledge required - this allows you full flexibility when defining your design requirements within ARAS/ArchiCAD! You can also do some prototyping if need be but I have found out myself how time consuming such process could become compared with just starting off modeling straight away using 3D CAD system like Autodesk Inventor etc.- not much dislike about anything so far except maybe sometimes there might seem laggy while opening new models- otherwise everything works well though!! If you're looking into creating detailed drawing sets up front then sure go ahead. We use ArchiCad mostly because we needed something relatively cheap & simple yet powerful enoughtetatimelyyour designs needs would.

Pros
  • Easy to learn, fast learning curve
  • Very user friendly interface for beginners;
  • Lots available plugins that one doesn't even know exist unless in search mode.
  • Good choice between parametric solidworks tools + 2 SolidEdge modules included which offers pretty impressive feature set too at reasonable cost price tag !!!!
Cons
  • Mostly okay, but...
