AutoCAD is the number one tool, the world over, for the creation of accurate technical drawings - period. No matter what you need to draw for layout plans, elevations, construction details, site plans, to product design drawings and more, AutoCAD is the industry standard that all other CAD programs are compared to and often the minimum standard required if you are looking for a job in the design industry. It is relatively easy to learn with a massive resource bank of training materials and courses available on line, in books centers of learning.
Strangely, compared to some industry specific CAD software, it's strangths of having a massive set of tools to help produce drawings for everyone across all industries also means finding the best set of tools for you, creating an effective process to achieve a task can be daunting but finding a good experienced mentor can help smooth the learning path and even be inspiring.
AutoCAD has the 2D & 3D drawing tools to allow you to communicate your design ideas with others. It can can export design data that CNC machines can read to produce your designs, output STL files for 3D printing and share drawings for comment, review or construction across the world with a broad range of online and mobile solutions.
Poder usar un software que me permite dibujar de forma rápida y sencilla, con acabados perfectos es algo que se agradece, así como poder intercambiar información por medio de archivos, ofrece herramientas para la gestión de proyectos que podemos compartir de manera inmediata, los acabados y la presentación de los proyectos es sin lugar a duda una de sus mayores ventajas.
Licencia muy costosa y muchas veces es lenta.
Me ha ayudado a lograr grandes acabados en cada uno de mis proyectos.
He usado esta herramienta desde hace muchos años para diseñar piezas de máquinas y planos industriales con resultados profesionales y exactos. La calidad del software hace que sea el mejor amigo de cada diseñador o proyectista. La interfaz es muy intuitiva, proporcionando un rápido aprendizaje de su uso para los principiantes. La cantidad de detalles que se pueden lograr en los diseños gracias a todos los comandos que posee el software es increíble. En algunas ocasiones, algunos ensambles requieren que cada parte sea diferenciada, y el software posee la característica de la asignación de colores a cada pieza, logrando así una perfecta terminación en cada trabajo que se realice.
He sido usuario durante varios años y no he tenido mayor problema que un lento inicio del software o algún detalle en la conversión del guardado del archivo en PDF. El software es increíble, generalmente no presenta problemas.
He realizado diseños de planos industriales a lo largo de los años con cada edición del software, esto ha sido muy valioso ya que me ha permitido realizar presentaciones profesionales de proyectos. La cantidad de piezas mecánicas que he diseñado es innumerable, y de igual manera los planos de estas, todo con un resultado profesional y muy valioso.

Autocad software is used to draw accurate 2D and 3D drawings. it is very usefull for our mechanical field. This software is also used in all engineering fields like civil, architect, electrical etc. It is very user friendly. we can make changes very easily. This software help engineers very much for easy flow of work.
As far as I see i didn't dislike anything in autocad software. I only thing about this software is it is bit expensive.
Autocad software helped me lot in terms of time saving and easy flow of work on site. It gives me all the technique for easy work. It's very precise and easy to explain.
I love that while Autodesk continuously develops and upgrades their products they keep the old functionality alive. I can use the commands that I learned 15 years ago still today!The product is industry standard and open ended enough to see any project all the way through, or able to export cleanly into another platform.
The open ended nature of the software is sometimes challenging for younger generations more experienced with purpose built software.
Pure design. The open ended platform give me the freedom to draw what I need to draw no matter the context.
i like that is a program that is used by the most of engineers so i can produce or manage a file and send it to other engineer and can continue the job.
i dont like that is hard to learn how to use, there is a lot commands that need especific information that you must provide for complete one task, so you can spent months of practice before you become a advanced user of this program
plans production, editing, designing, the benefits is the time amount of time that you save once you are a experimented user, currently is the program used in the company for plans and designing
Lo que más me gusta de AutoCAD es su rápida interfaz y la barra para escribir los comandos que necesite usar cuando esté construyendo algún plano o pieza. Al momento de diseñar, la concentración que se requiere es muy alta para evitar perder algún detalle en el diseño, y por ello, es muy agradable poder seleccionar algún comando haciendo una entrada de texto o eligiendo algún ícono que represente alguna función. La personalización de la interfaz es lo más resaltante del software; cada diseñador elige las funciones que más use o las que más necesite al momento de construir algún plano o pieza (dependiendo del área en la que se desempeñe), y AutoCAD hace esto posible de una manera muy sutil y competente. Al momento de construir alguna pieza en 3D, siempre se hace necesario la identificación de cada una en el plano de conjunto, debido que algunas son muy pequeñas para identificar, y AutoCAD tiene la particularidad de que a cada una se le puede asignar un color, lo que hace que las simulaciones sean muy agradables visualmente.
Generalmente, no tengo problemas con AutoCAD. Lo único que me ha molestado algunas veces es que al momento de guardar un plano en formato PDF, algunas líneas pierden el grosor o el color.
He sido el encargado de realizar planos de Plantas Industriales en las empresas en las que he trabajado, y con AutoCAD el proceso siempre es muy sencillo y eficiente. Todo lo que se necesita para hacer una representación esquemática de la Planta, se realiza de una manera rápida y sin inconvenientes. En algunas ocasiones he sido el encargado de hacer pedidos de piezas hechas a medida a distintos proveedores, y con el software la representación en planos es muy detallada y agradable.
I using this software for drowning electrical drawing and Aircondition drawing design. this software is included good facilities and tools for my idea drawing. I like the software interface in the new version.
need best hardware performance include CPU for install and running AutoCAD software. As the amount of creation increases, the computer slows down
I have the best performance include Computer and good condition running my pc on this software. and daily I work my simple and advance electrical and structural drawings. This is the only solution I have
Wide utility and functionality of the software to respond to the technical needs of the professional user, it has many commands and tools that facilitate the tasks of large-scale complex 2d drawing which generates benefits in reducing working times and improving quality and precision in designs , it is the most efficient software to make 2d plans precisely and extract the technical information is very simple since exporting the DWG file will be enough to take advantage of the work done.
Being a professional technical software it is necessary to implement long training times and it is necessary to be updating every year since each new version includes improvements and innovations that must be learned to deploy to get the most out of the software, its printing options continue being very limited and more complicated than the user expects what a nuisance means when executing the printing options tools.
All of my 2d design work for architectural projects in medical areas is done in this software since it has wide superiority in the market with respect to its operation and resources available in a professional workspace and that has a large user community. which allows me to share a file in dwg format and that other colleagues can open and read it on other devices without problems.
AutoCad is a software that is used for creation of designs using geometries. Autocad has many features that and learning resources that help with the software.
The installation file size is very large. Also, when large drawings are made, the file is excessively large and difficult to transmit through via email.
AutoCad has helped me to solve problems involving creation of process flow diagrams (PFD) and Piping and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID).
Features I like; 2D and 3D drawing Ready drawing templates Very nice to use, there are many shortcuts and uses depending on the use of the mouse. The installation takes about 4-5 minutes. Licensing is simple and very easy. He doesn't bother us. The colors used in the interface are not tired. The design features zoom without losing image quality and this is great for detail input.
I think that there is no better application in drawing and design than Autocad. I cannot comment negatively about AutoCad.
The application, as I said in the title, is perhaps the best in its field. It helps us to make various designs. We design the new branches and vector drawings of technological devices in our conference and meeting rooms. We design and buy giant screens according to the size of the area. With this program, we have 5 large conference rooms. I played a major role in the purchase of the application, I personally and 3 team mates with me tests. a program without alternatives for us. We also make 3D drawings.
What i like most about AutoCAD is that it commands a ground-breaking and simple work process that assists the clients in executing the directions viably and absolutely. Also,the drawings created are easy to generate , share with co-workers.It also boasts of a backup that ensures drawings are not lost.Trainings can be easily accessed on YouTube and many learning e-sites.
The number one reason to dislike the software is not being pocket friendly for individuals,students and companies.It requires a very high speed computer to fully enjoy its functions.The autocad program crashes a lot when a drawing stays open for too long.The 3D modelling capabilities are nit the best and still lags behind.The file size in Dwg is too large and should be reduced.
Used autocad for designing process flow diagrams ,piping drawing and layout design House plan designs Used as the primary software for executing projects within a work team.
