What do you like best about DraftSight?

We decided to use Draftsight to replace AutoCAD as our autoCAD licensing was costing us a fortune and we can do the same things with Draftsight, so the best feature of Draftsight for us, is the price. Additionally, it was an easy transition from AutoCAD to Draftsight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DraftSight?

There are some additional features in our previous software, but we were able to work around any small shortcomings we found in Draftsite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
