Rated 8 out of 10 by satisfied customers

I don’t know why anyone would continue working with AutoCAD. DraftSight is a good tool with an extremely effective set of features at a much lower cost. We moved our design library over to DraftSight seamlessly and have moved forward with our work without missing a beat."
