PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

I love how it is FREE and a GOOD 2D CAD software! It has the same capabilities as the AutoCAD Lite. You can edit DWG files on it and you don't need to pay for updates every year as you do for other software. If you need more functionalities, you can upgrade to its pro version for about $300. In there, you'll have short-cut functions, more drawing tools, and even some programming functions.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

I am annoyed at the "-" (dashes) found in Excel tables embedded. Sometimes they just go away on their own but it's hard to identify and deal with them even using various zoom scales. Also, multi-sheet drawings are hard to handle from a single file. It has trouble printing them. This might also be an issue with AutoCAD.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

Most companies are using 3D models for now. But if you just want to edit AutoCAD drawings fast, you can use DraftSight's free version. Also, it has viewing options for stored files. You don't even have to pay extra for this feature.
