"Best for computerized design"
What do you like best about AutoCAD?

AutoCAD is the best tool to create designs, I have used this tool for years and it has been the best decision I have made, I can create innovative part designs, it has helped me to replace obsolete pieces of equipment with more than 30 years of existence, which still work and which major suppliers stopped making replacements, and it has served me tremendously.

What do you dislike about AutoCAD?

It is a very solid tool and it has always given me more happiness than problems, although sometimes it tends to get slow due to some functions, I still do not think about changing it, because it has a very robust and wonderful interface for my day-to-day work.

What problems is AutoCAD solving and how is that benefiting you?

The best thing about this tool is that it always surprises me with its new updates and that the creators are not afraid to innovate, I have found that they even have an AutoCAD Mobile App which is wonderful, I can enter my plans every time I want and when I want, I have always felt comfortable with this tool, happy working with AutoCAD

"Best software for 2d drawings"
What do you like best about AutoCAD?

2D autoCAD is very useful in creating drawing. It has features to create line, circle, rectangles, to give offset and many more. I generally used to create mechanical drawing. I create tanker drawings in autocad we can create table give numbers to each part and define the full name at right side. We can rotate the drawing but I generally found it messy whenever I try to rotate in 2d drawings. We can take print from the plotter in a2 a4 a1 size which ever suits us there are many option for drawing size.

What do you dislike about AutoCAD?

3d drawing doesn't work so good in it as compare to other software.

What problems is AutoCAD solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used to create tanker drawing s and many mechanical drawings for our submission in explosive department.

"AutoCAD the best in design and drawing."
What do you like best about AutoCAD?

It is the best for creating designs and drawings in 2D and 3D, it is a useful tool, I have known this tool for years since I passed through the University and until now it is still one of the best in Design and creation of plans

What do you dislike about AutoCAD?

It has the best tools and a powerful interface so that I can safely manage designs, import and export data. I do not find anything negative so far it has worked perfectly for me.

What problems is AutoCAD solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have years of using AutoCad and I have worked with other software and could say that I feel like working with AutoCad, it has no limits for drawing and modeling. The best thing is that I have designed parts and pieces of equipment that are no longer on the market due to the obsolescence of the equipment and I take a lathe and they manufacture them perfectly, it has worked wonderfully for me, AutoCAD is excellent software and an essential tool for manufacturing engineers.

"AutoCAD - Most vital designing tool"
What do you like best about AutoCAD?

AutoCAD is utilized on a wide basis by hundreds of users. Engineers use this tool mostly. Civil engineers use AutoCAD to create various architecture plans and Electrical engineers use it to make panel drawings and ELV Drawings like fire systems, public addresses, and video surveillance systems. This tool provides 2D as well as 3D Drawings with actual dimensions. We can also draw with specific layers and various layouts.

What do you dislike about AutoCAD?

While it's incredible software I sometimes faced crashes and delays that may be disturbed, especially if I didn't previously save the projects or had anything necessary.

What problems is AutoCAD solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our organization uses this tool to design various Electronics low voltage solutions like fire system, telecom system, automation services, BMS services, video surveillance solution, and audio-video solutions. It has become very important and essential to fulfilling our customer's requirements.
