In my experience it's the best 2D/3D CAD software. I use this software to design electrical circuits
Its very user-friendly and on top of all its free, and also does not use too much system memory. With an average PC you can easily run multiple tasks while working on this software, without worrying about usage of system memory. The program is simple and not too much complicated and has all the great tools, so many people can take advantage and use it with more ease.
CONSThe features of this software are too limited and selection of add-ons can also be improved. But as its for free so one can live with these little flaws. But if new features can be added, it will make this software perfect for work.

Nice some extra features that are unique but they should work on its complexity
PROSI like the requirements for using this softwares , not too much they don't over work my PC. Building different models to come up with desired 3D/2D plans with its features is also a plus, cosidering its a free s/w this is great.
CONSHonestly if you don't have prior experience with design s/w this one is not for beginners. Its a bit complex for beginners

FreeCAD professional level tool
Excellent tool for designing structures in detail, elaborating analysis parameters for deformation and strength calculations. And it's still possible to do it on less powerful machines, so to speak.
CONSTransferring the drawing to paper with a level of detail is already a little more difficult, it has a lot of loss, also if you need to make a large and detailed structure, only with FreeCAD it is very complicated, for that you would need some other tools, making a more complex job.
Reasons for switching to FreeCAD
Difficulties in accuracies and more complex and larger details

A free CAD tool sufficient for learner.
Free CAD is open source software. User can easily sketch, constraint a geometry, draft a models from 3D into 2D. The user interface is user friendly. Easy to install and run the software.
CONSThe open privacy for free versions make visible of a user project to all. Free version have limited features. Not suggesting for professional designers.
