### "3D software under CAD environment is excellent for computer-aided design, easy to use and efficient."

May 26, 2018

5.0

Modeling for construction offers an integrated way to explore the main physical and functional characteristics of a project digitally. So I have used an intelligent 3D model to inform and communicate decisions about the project, the BIM tool has given me knowledge and commercial value for construction design projects, infrastructure and utilities specifically in air conditioning systems.

Pros

I like the practical and easy to develop designs in this product, in addition to the excellent technical support which clarifies the doubts in a direct and efficient way. Autodesk's Digital Prototyping tools help engineers and designers to experience 3D CAD designs virtually before building them, enabling them to be tested and optimized.

Cons

The requirements in terms of the ram memory capacity of the machine where the software will be installed, the high-end processor that is required makes the equipment where it is installed very expensive.

### "A review of 3D CAD."

May 28, 2019

5.0

There are no areas that make confusion if you understand how things work. The entire procedure of making prints is made within a creator's browser, and you do not have even to create an account or log in to the website. You can simply download created images to your own computer. Still, a strong impression says this software is only for a temporary need, and your firm should buy a PRO version of some other model if you have a need for a permanent professional solution.

Pros

3D CAD is excellent software when your firm has a temporary need for some fast solutions in 3D computer-aided design. It is completely free and accessible to anyone with a stable internet connection and desktop computer. You can start customizing your prints by visiting the official website. 3D CAD is available there, and you can activate the software with a few clicks. It allows you to develop and adjust different images necessary for printing. You will have some basic knowledge about this software in order to begin using it efficiently. The manuals are also available on the same website, so it is not a problem to learn more. On the other hand, the interface is user-friendly, and everything is clearly visible there.

Cons

Better kept as a temporary software. 3D CAD doesn't make a strong enough impact for purchase to me.

### "Designing and Modeling perfectly with 3d Cad!"

February 1, 2023

5.0

Pros

1)Precision: 3D CAD allows for precise and accurate design and modeling, which is essential for complex projects in industries such as architecture, engineering, and manufacturing.2)Collaboration: 3D CAD software often includes features that enable collaboration among team members, allowing multiple users to work on the same design at the same time.

Cons

Realatively high cost: 3D CAD software can be expensive, and some of the more advanced features may only be available in more expensive versions of the software.

### "I have used it additional when I have no possibility to use autocad. is very good. "

May 10, 2018

4.0

You can solve some jobs on computers where you did not have the possibility to install AutoCAD using this tool.

Pros

It is a program that allows you to convert files and work them in a format compatible with CAD environment. this allows you to use it even if you do not have autocad installed on your computer. Best of all, the application is super light compared to its Autodesk counterpart.

Cons

It does not always recognize all file formats, and the help panel is not explanatory enough to learn how to use it without first doing a basic course, which is also not a tutorial for using this application.

### "Seemlessly transition between programs with this software!"

April 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

In some programs, you always have to search for ways to format and convert files to work with other programs, and this platform allows you the ability to do that. What a great principal idea from these developers, everyone has been looking for a program like this for years.

Cons

Only con would be that it doesn't open every file. I attempted to convert a rhino file to work in ArchiCAD and couldn't quite figure it out myself. The lack of information out there on this product didn't help me either.

Long time to learn but I am getting there. Plotting is somewhat challenging. Needs more help features.

Pros

I was trained in first hand drafting then 2D CAD. this takes getting used to. I like how my drafting can somewhat easily be rendered in 3D for my clients.

Cons

VERY hard to learn. Expensive. Not for beginners.

Pros

It is a tool that is easy to use and very useful for the design and management of 3D drawings, it allows us to individualize the drawings and then generate graphics according to our needs.

At the beginning it is a bit complicated to understand it because we do not have many tutorials or user manuals, but over time it becomes an easy-to-use tool
