About CorelCAD

CorelCAD is a computer-aided design solution that helps architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) professionals create 2D drawings and transform them into 3D models. It enables users to render files into DWG, STL, PDF and CDR formats and streamline 3D printing operations in real-time.

CorelCAD allows employees to manage projects, collaborate with team members, suppliers and business units and modify the file size as per business requirements. It offers a variety of features including data import/export, batch processing, access control, data extraction and more. Additionally, professionals can utilize mobile applications to view, track and edit drafts and share files with internal and external stakeholders using Android and iOS devices.

Pros:

I found CorelCAD easy to use because of the AutoCad knowledge and experience I have. It is an affordable software for personal projects and small businesses. It can be use by any 3D drafter for architectural and structural design, either beginner or advanced level. It has compatible files with AutoCAD which is great to share with others.

Cons:

I am a casual user of CorelCad and so far it was pretty good for the projects I worked on, so I don't have anything negative to say about this software.

For me, one of the most competitive vector software in the market

The way you can convert an image to vectors in less than 5 minutes.

Pros:

I love this software when vector graphics is in the title. I think this is the most amazing product to create vector images and graphics. It is not hard to learn at all, as all the tools are pretty easy to use. The ability of "vectorize" an image automatically is one of the biggest features, as you literally have to click a button to convert a pixel image into vectors so that you can scale it or edit as much as you want. Also, I think Corel Draw has improved its software in the last 3-4 years. Tools are easy to find and gives you the opportunity to create templates.

Cons:

The only thing I consider that needs more improvement is the "snap" and dimensionality matter. I think that setting rulers are not enough to get points nor dimensions accurate.

Pros:

Once I got past getting situated with the software, I was satisified with the value vs. features of this software. The interface is pleasing.

Cons:

I did not like the learning curve that came with learning this software. After using AutoCAD and Blender, etc, I can say that this software could be simplified a bit to gain an edge over competitors. Right now, it feels more like an underpowered, inexpensive AutoCAD. If that's what you want, great, but if not, you may want to consider a larger investment for something a little more solid. Still like this software.

Cheap and good CAD alternative.

For someone on a budget and who wants a solid CAD drawing software (not perfect), corelcad is a great software.

Pros:

For someone who is accustomed to working with 2D and 3D design in CAD softwares corelcad is actually a really good software that is easy to learn and pretty straightforward. It's cheaper than other cad programs.

Cons:

It can crash a lot and make your computer really slow. Also given the fact that the most commonly used CAD software is autocad and that importing a project from said program to corelcad ussually is problematic this is a huge downside.

Pros:

You can design a lot of design on this software. It gives you access to save your file in lot of format like jpeg, pdf, eps etc. It also helps you save your file in different resolution. You can design a product from scratch here.

Cons:

It wont let you do the editing of the feature like filters and removing the background. It is a just a designing software not an editing software. It is a paid software.
