AutoCAD LT vs. Pixpro vs. TurboCAD

AutoCAD LT is suitable for engineers that uses DWG formats casually and don't rely on AutoCAD as the main tool to issue drawings in the workflow. AutoCAD LT is best suited for firms that do not use LISP functions in AutoCAD and do not care about 3D modeling. Although AutoCAD LT has other missing functions when compared to standard AutoCAD, these features are of less importance and can't be noticed.

TurboCAD is well suited to a smaller budget, it is by no means the best there is but for the money, it fills the gap. Being an AutoCAD & DraftSight user I find the user interface a little old and the lack of common drafting industry shortcut keys a bit of a hindrance. However this product, TurboCAD gets the job done, other packages like DraftSight do not even come with an active 3D option on the cheaper end, standard license whereas TurboCAD does, even though it's a little clumsy to use.

• The library feature for all areas is to me AutoCAD LT's extra strong point, it makes it easier to find information within the program itself.
• The fast solutions and precise development of drawings and projects is also another strong point.
• I use the floor plans, elevations, sections and the hydraulic designs to work with my students on physics projects.
• The software allows you to scale model and remodel as many times as you need, from simple to more complex designs
• Importing and exporting files is also very simple to perform making corrections and quick feedback to students easy.

• Produces accurate drawings to scale, and with several ways to show the "views" to people in need of them at our factory.
• Relatively easy to use, once you understand the toolset. You can draw anything with it.
• Sending files to CNC machine shops to produce parts is easy with this program.
• Sending to mold making companies works out well. Just ask them what file format they want and TurboCAD can give it to them.

• The differences between the Mac and PC versions are quite difficult to navigate. It would be better to have a more streamlined experience between the two platforms
• It would be nice to have feature like geolocation on the online or mac version and not just the PC version
• Make it more compatible with other AutoCAD formats so that I can at least view things when they are coming from Civil 3D

• Some of the load times are lengthy is there a way to streamline this?
• Path Hatching and Object Trim could use a hot key
• More intuitive layer management system

It’s easy to use, easy to customize, easy to understand on the logic behind it and the guides provides everything to improve further. the buttons are well displaced and easy to use and remember. everything seems really well fought to make it easier to use. in a single word: polished.

TurboCAD does all of the things we need it to do and some. The wide variety of options to create specificity in each of our projects is a large plus. The reason it was given a 9 is because the learning curve can be a little steep and sometimes certain processes are not as intuitive as they could be

Although AutoCAD LT is the lite software when compared to standard AutoCAD, it does all the work when it comes to 2D modeling and issuing design drawings. When comparing it to BricsCAD, AutoCAD LT shines, as it works without freezing and is usually more responsive than BricsCAD, it just outclasses it.

3DS Max is the one I use the most, the other two are good choices also. They have more online tutorials for helping learn them.

• The impact is always positive in my case when I use AutoCAD LT, because I provide intelligent lessons with few resources
• The negative impact usually happens with professionals who don't like to innovate, study, or put a little more effort into their work. AutoCAD LT enables the enchantment at the end of the project by the public and at the beginning by the students that are delighted with so many tools

• Ability to render quotes.
• Ability to supply complete drawings.
• Easy to use interface provides a faster design time window.
